There is revival of interest in small and simpler units for generating electricity from nuclear power, ... These may be built independently or as modules in a larger complex, with capacity added incrementally as required - see final section of this paper. Economies of scale are provided by the numbers produced.

The key to initiating a fusion reaction is for the nuclei that are to fuse to collide at very high velocities, thus driving them close enough together for the strong (but very short-ranged) nuclear forces to overcome the electrical repulsion between them.
