Founded by Eric Schmidt, former Chairman of Google, the Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP) is “a non-partisan, non-profit initiative with a clear mission: to make recommendations to strengthen America’s long-term competitiveness as artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies are reshaping our national security, economy, and society.”
This month, the SCSP’s Commission on the Scaling of Fusion Energy released a preliminary report under the leadership of Senator Jim Risch (R-ID), Co-Chair, Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA), Co-Chair, and Ylli Bajraktari, President of SCSP, Co-Chair.
Blue Capital portfolio company Longview’s CEO Dr. Edward Moses participated as an Expert Briefer in relation to the development of the report. According to a press release, the report, entitled “Fusion Power: Enabling 21st Century American Dominance,” is oriented to provide:
A strategy argument for fusion power, emphasizing the role of fusion in ensuring U.S. energy independence, economic stability, and technological leadership, with initial recommendations of steps that should be taken to prepare for the era of commercial fusion power.
Ensure the United States, together with our allies and partners, wins the fusion race and lays the groundwork for large-scale domestic power generation from fusion within a decade.
