TL;DR Summary

Microsoft has signed a deal with fusion energy company Helion to buy electricity produced entirely from fusion by 2028, making it the first company to commit to such a deal. Fusion energy is the clean energy source of the stars in space, but experts have said it is likely still decades away on Earth. The deal outlines a plan for Helion to provide at least 50 megawatts of power for Microsoft by 2028. Nuclear energy being produced at a significant level through fusion could massively reduce man-made climate change as it produces no greenhouse gasses or nuclear waste.
