We had been working with them on and off through all of those machines, through Grande, Venti, Trenta.
So they had seen us build, hit milestones, show that we can do fusion, scale up by orders of magnitude, and then access these advanced fusion fuels.
So they had seen all of those things and seen the manufacturing we built.
We're already right now building...
the manufacturing to support that power plant.
We're doing that today.
We started two years ago on doing the work around siting, around the interconnects.
How do you plug fusion in?
What does it look like?
How do you site it?
What are the environmental consequences?
Who's going to regulate it?
All of those things.
So we spent a lot of time already and we're on our way.
And it's going to be hard, like no joke about it.
This is tough.
And it's something that I think about every day.
I mean, that's the thought process.
That's the mentality.
We're going to do it anyway.
