How solid-state fusion could transform the global energy system
In an exclusive studio interview with Energy Connects at ADIPEC 2025, Hideki Yoshino, Founder and CEO of Clean Planet, discusses the transformative potential of fusion in addressing the global energy challenge. Yoshino outlines how solid-state fusion (SSF) could deliver abundant and lower carbon heat with no radioactive waste, and how it can be scaled to serve industries, AI data centres, desalination plants and even homes. From its origins in Japanese university research to its commercialisation pathway and global expansion ambitions, Yoshino explores why quantum hydrogen and SSF needs collaboration, safety and leadership in bringing the breakthrough technology to market.
