Abstract
This paper is the first to define a conceptual design of a fusion power complex with hydrogen storage capability in a superconducting magnet system using cryogenic hydrogen. The fusion power complex realizes a carbon-neutral society by combining a large-capacity power source of renewable energy with the flexibility of energy output. Therefore, the proposed design is positioned as one of the most important next-generation power sources.
Keywords
