China has recently made significant advancements toward achieving a near-limitless energy source through nuclear fusion technology. In January 2025, Chinese researchers at the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), often referred to as the “artificial sun,” sustained a superheated plasma loop for 1,000 seconds, surpassing their previous record of 403 seconds
This achievement brings scientists closer to replicating the nuclear fusion processes of the sun, which could provide a virtually inexhaustible and clean energy source.
In addition to progress in fusion technology, China has been exploring alternative nuclear fuels, such as thorium. Recent geological surveys have identified substantial thorium deposits within the country, suggesting a potential for a long-term energy supply.
Thorium-based reactors are considered a safer and more sustainable alternative to traditional uranium-based reactors, offering another avenue toward achieving near-limitless energy.
These developments underscore China’s commitment to pioneering advanced energy technologies that aim to provide sustainable and abundant energy solutions for the future.
