Station of Extreme Light

The Station of Extreme Light is laser facility aimed at producing a laser with 100 petawatts of peak power. The station is currently under construction in Shanghai, China. The laser may be powerful enough to produce matter and antimatter directly from a vacuum.
Upon completion, the laser will be the most powerful on Earth, with an instantaneous power 10,000 times the power of all the world's electrical grids combined, and a trillion trillion times more intense than sunlight, albeit only for a tiny fraction of a second. The facility is scheduled for completion in 2023 and will be able to provide focused intensity of more than.
