Google and Chevron have taken part in a $150 million funding round of TAE Technologies, which is developing a new type of nuclear fusion reactor design. Founded in 1998, TAE Technologies has been ...

The company claimed that the FRC-based machine can achieve up to 100x more fusion power output as a typical tokamak of the same magnetic field strength and plasma volume.

The company has created plasma in its prototype reactor – a major milestone in proving its technology. ... This proves General Fusion's Lawson Machine 26 (LM26) prototype reactor, ...

Just two years since emerging from stealth, German startup Proxima Fusion has bagged Europe’s largest-ever private investment ...

As part of the global effort to harness power from fusing plasma, scientists worked on the computer codes, engineering and physics for a new and unique fusion reactor: the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak.

The most popular technology involves a donut-shaped machine called a tokamak, ... Instead of having plasma inside magnets, it has a magnet inside the plasma. Its reactor features a single, ...

TAE Technologies has raised over $150M in a new funding round to support development of its Copernicus fusion reactor, aiming to deliver clean, grid-ready hydrogen-boron fusion power.

The machine in Cadarache, south-east France, was able to maintain a plasma for 1,337 seconds on February 12. The CEA said reaching the duration was a “crucial milestone”.

General Fusion says its new fusion reactor will produce more power than it consumes by 2027 — a breakthrough that could eventually help scale the technology into a power plant.

Fusion energy company TAE Technologies has received investments to fund the construction of its sixth-generation research reactor that it says will demonstrate the viability of net energy from TAE's ...

Nuclear fusion is a technology with the ultimate goal of controlling naturally unstable plasma. It uses even fewer resources and less fuel than fission, which was already very concentrated, and ...
