The invention relates to the production of energy with laser beams, involving: a) exciting a fuel target (4) into a plasma state using a first set of laser beams (1); b) bombarding the fuel target in the plasma state with particles generated using a second set of laser beams (2), the fuel and the particles being chosen so that the interaction between the fuel target in the plasma state and the particles produce non-thermal equilibrium aneutronic nuclear reactions; and c) recovering energy from the ions generated by the aneutronic nuclear reactions.
