Iter Organization

ITER Organization is an international, large-scale scientific collaboration intended to prove the viability of fusion as an energy source and to collect data necessary for the design and subsequent operation of the first electricity-producing fusion power plant. Its seven members include countries such as China, European Union, India, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and the United States. The seven members signed the ITER Agreement in 2006, and agreed to share in every aspect of the project, including science, procurement, financing, staffing, and intellectual property. The ITER Organization is based in Saint-paul-lez-durance.
