The first thermonuclear plasma has been achieved at the T-15MD tokamak, at Russia’s Kurchatov Institute and the facility is operating steadily, according to Kurchative Institute President Mikhail Kovalchuk. The physical launch of the T-15MD tokamak took place in May 2021. "The stable plasma, at millions of degrees Celsius, has been obtained.… This most complicated and expensive installation started up immediately and is now working, gaining power and reaching global parameters,” he said.

The GI Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (INP SB RAS) has succeeded in increasing the plasma density by 1.5 times in its SMOLA fusion facility. It also slowed down plasma outflow by 10 times. Research in the field of controlled thermonuclear fusion is being carried out using experimental facilities based on various magnetic confinement systems. They all have the same goal - to achieve the temperature, density and plasma confinement time necessary for thermonuclear fusion.

Russia’s AA Bochvar Institute of Inorganic Materials (VNIINM – part of Rosatom’s Fuel Company TVEL) has developed a basic version of the technological tritium cycle for modernisation of the strong field tokamak (TSP) at the Troitsk Institute of Innovative and Thermonuclear Research (TRINITI). The work is taking place within the framework of the federal project "Development of technologies for controlled thermonuclear fusion and innovative plasma technologies", part of the comprehensive programme "Development of equipment, technologies and research in the use of atomic energy for the period up to 2024". VNIINM’s department of special non-nuclear materials and isotopic products together with the specialists from TRINITI have developed the basic version of the technological tritium cycle for the experimental modified high-field tokamak.
