With larger dimensions comes less demanding physics. Perhabs they have opted for some kind of ideal compromise. The coil arrangement and the burn chamber in an FRC is vastly simpler than in a tokamak so one should not conclude that it will cost as much as a tokamak of the same size. The full article...

What matters is cost, not size. It is still microscopic compared to a wind power park of the same power.
