And yet, geothermal sources currently produce only three-tenths of one percent of the world’s electricity. Invented by Soviet scientists in the 1960s , gyrotons are used in nuclear fusion research experiments to heat and control plasma. The system would rely on injected gas to quench and carry out ash.

Despite these gains, though, traditional magnetic-confinement fusion is still years away from fulfilling nuclear fusion’s promise of generating abundant and carbon-free electricity. But tokamaks aren’t the only path to fusion power. The company produced its first fusion reactions the very next year.

Since installing the first workplace charging station in 2014, Ford and its employees have saved more than 6,000 gallons of gas, enough to fill a Ford Fusion Energi 428 times, the company calculates. The system is also capable of diverting 70 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually when using green energy sources.
