en.Wedoany.com Reported - On September 11, Luo Delong, Deputy Director-General of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Organization, and his delegation visited China Fusion Energy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Fusion") for research and guidance, gaining an in-depth understanding of China Fusion's overall development and the progress of key task implementation. Zhang Libo, General Manager of China Fusion, accompanied the research visit.

During the visit, the two sides held a special symposium. On behalf of China Fusion, Zhang Libo extended a warm welcome to Luo Delong and his delegation, and expressed sincere gratitude to the ITER Organization and Mr. Luo Delong for their concern, support, and guidance regarding China Fusion's development and the fulfillment of tasks related to the ITER Project. At the meeting, Zhong Wulv, Chief Engineer of China Fusion, delivered an overall situation report, focusing on China Fusion's current development status and future prospects. The two sides conducted in-depth exchanges on topics including international cooperation in the field of fusion energy, key engineering construction, and core technology breakthroughs. Luo Delong expressed appreciation for China Fusion's rapid development since its establishment more than a year ago, fully affirmed the phased achievements it has made, and thanked China Fusion for its important contributions to the implementation of the ITER Project.

Subsequently, Luo Delong delivered a special lecture titled "Progress and Prospects of ITER Project Implementation" to more than 100 cadres and employees, systematically sharing valuable experience in collaborative management and key technology tackling of global large-scale scientific projects. The lecture was delivered in an accessible manner, effectively broadening the participants' international perspective and deepening their understanding of the global fusion energy development landscape.

After the meeting, Luo Delong and his delegation conducted an on-site inspection of Phase I of the Shanghai Fusion Science Research Center and the High-Temperature Superconducting Magnet R&D Department (Shanghai Heavy Machinery Plant), going deep into the front line of project construction to learn in detail about project progress, equipment manufacturing, and on-site management, and offering professional guidance on production development and project advancement.

This research and exchange visit built an important platform for China Fusion to further deepen cooperation with the ITER Organization and enhance its management capabilities for major scientific research projects. In the future, China Fusion will continue to strengthen international exchange and cooperation, accelerate the research, development, and industrialization of fusion energy, actively serve the national "dual carbon" strategy, and contribute Chinese wisdom and Chinese strength to promoting the global clean energy transition.
