Warren East, former CEO of Rolls Royce and Arm, speaking at a tech event in London on June 13, 2022. "I think we have a lot to offer in terms of U.K.-based innovative technology," East told the audience at Cambridge Tech Week. However, he added: "We tend not to be able to realise as many global businesses as that promise would suggest." East was also previously the CEO of U.K. aviation engineering giant Rolls-Royce . East said that Britain "needs to get commercialization right," adding that too much innovation gets created in the U.K. but is then exported elsewhere around the world.

OpenAI's Sam Altman is taking nuclear startup Oklo public through a SPAC expected to close in 2024. The Oklo SPAC deal will mark a watershed moment for the energy source, industry experts told Insider. The public debut of Oklo, a nuclear startup chaired by Sam Altman, could be a watershed moment for the power source, industry experts say. Fission versus fusionThere are two types of nuclear power: fission and fusion. All existing nuclear energy is created via fission, which makes up around 10% of the world's electricity supply, per the International Energy Agency.

WASHINGTON, May 31 (Reuters) - Eight U.S. companies developing nuclear fusion energy will receive $46 million in taxpayer funding to pursue pilot plants attempting to generate power from the process that fuels the sun and stars, the Department of Energy said on Wednesday. Generating more energy from fusion reaction than goes into it has eluded scientists for decades. The Energy Department's Milestone-Based Fusion Development Program hopes to help develop pilot-scale demonstration of fusion within a decade. The awardees are:-Commonwealth Fusion Systems-Focused Energy Inc-Princeton Stellarators Inc-Realta Fusion Inc-Tokamak Energy Inc-Type One Energy Group-Xcimer Energy Inc-Zap Energy IncThe funding, which comes from the Energy Act of 2020, is for the first 18 months. Looking to launch fusion plants that use lasers or magnets, private companies and government labs spent $500 million on their supply chains last year, according to a Fusion Industry Association (FIA) survey.
