Selected results from different tokamaks demonstrate substantial progress over recent decades from the low temperature, low energy gain points at the bottom left. Temperatures above 100 M°C are now routinely achieved and an energy gain of around one has been reached. A power plant needs an energy gain (Q) above 10, and this should be achieved in ITER.
