The company is working closely with Google, which is seeking advanced energy sources to power its hyperscale data centers.
China and the U.S. are in a race to create the first grid-scale nuclear fusion energy. “Whoever has essentially abundant limitless energy … can impact everything you think of,” said TAE Technologies CEO Michl Binderbauer.
Large, state-sponsored efforts and private startups are reporting breakthroughs that many in the industry now think will lead to viable fusion energy. And in developing such fusion power plants, we are creating new technologies and solutions that can reach far beyond the task of energy generation.
Hoping to ride the green-energy wave to a carbon-free future, energy companies are taking fusion from the lab to the grid—and promise to do so with machines that are far smaller and cheaper than previous iterations, based on the use of technologies and materials not available in the past, and often, on simpler designs.
Commercial fusion energy has been making headlines since scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California achieved what many have said was impossible: a fusion experiment that created a net energy gain.
TAE Technologies Announces Cedric Burgher as Chief Financial Officer – Burgher brings more than two decades of financial leadership experience in capital-intensive, publicly traded energy companies, including serving as CFO of Occidental Petroleum, QR Energy and KBR, Inc.
This week, we welcomed analysts to TAE Technologies’ headquarters for a look at how we’re advancing American fusion energy to power the A.I. revolution.
Trump Media & Technology Group to Merge with TAE Technologies, a Premier Fusion Power Company, in All-Stock Transaction Valued at More Than $6 Billion
TAE and UKAEA partner to commercialize advanced fusion technology – New joint venture TAE Beam UK will develop neutral beams for fusion and accelerator innovations for non-fusion applications.
TAE’s Norm machine – the first to produce FRC plasmas with only neutral beam injection – has performed beyond expectations, leapfrogging a planned sixth device, Copernicus
We’re excited to announce a new partnership with the United Kingdom and its national fusion lab, @UKAEAofficial, to commercialize our world-leading particle accelerator technology for the global market: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/tae-technologies-and-ukaea-partner-to-commercialise-fusion-tech
At the center of this partnership is TAE Beam UK, a joint venture to design, develop and ultimately manufacture and service neutral beams for fusion. TAE Beam UK – the first US-UK public-private partnership of its kind – will also develop accelerator technology for state-of-the-art cancer therapeutics, food safety, homeland security and more.
With investment from the UKAEA, this new entity will operate out of the lab’s Culham Campus in Oxfordshire, UK, expanding TAE’s presence in the region and establishing a global hub for this vital fusion technology.
TAE continues to redefine FRC fusion with our advanced neutral beam technology.
Our particle accelerators have already achieved a scientific breakthrough this year with our machine’s ability to form, heat and stabilize an FRC plasma using only neutral beam injection – a first in fusion.
Now, our team has optimized this technology even more to tackle two of the biggest hurdles for an FRC machine: plasma stability at fusion-relevant temperatures.
New research published in Nuclear Fusion from the TAE team, led by James Titus, details how we’ve increased beam current drive and implemented fast modulation of beam energy – enhancements that improve our plasma performance as we scale toward the cleanest, safest commercial fusion power.

Congratulations to Senior Scientist Roelof Groenewald, Science Fellow Dan Barnes and the rest of the TAE team on winning a 2025 INFUSE Award!
This @U.S. Department of Energy research grant will support TAE’s work with a new algorithm that can perform higher fidelity simulations of plasma behavior — capturing crucial, previously unseen details that will advance our development of a cost-effective fusion machine.
The algorithm is an upgraded Darwin model, enhanced by TAE Science Fellow Dan Barnes to run faster and in 3D. TAE will partner with @Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to implement this new approach into the open-source code, WarpX, and use it to simulate plasma performance in our current machine.
As a company founded out of @UC Irvine, we’re proud to continue our tradition of intentional public-private partnership to deliver the cleanest and safest commercial fusion power. Thank you to the DOE for investing in the future of fusion, and thank you to our LBNL colleagues for their collaboration!

TAE Senior Scientist Roelof Groenewald talks with “Good Clean Energy” as his team’s new research upends one of the biggest FRC myths in fusion science. Listen here.
Looking for more? Chief Growth Officer and “Good Clean Energy” host Jim McNiel explores what this research reveals about persistence on the path to commercial fusion power: on LinkedIn
Commercial fusion demands persistence, and the right partners. We’re proud to say we have both as Google renews its commitment to TAE.
For more than 10 years, Google and TAE have worked together to advance fusion science with cutting-edge machine learning.
The collaboration has been instrumental to our scientific progress, including our most recent breakthrough: A simplified, first-of-its-kind fusion machine called “Norm” that reduces the complexity and cost of a future fusion power plant.
We’re building fusion that’s safe, practical and engineered to scale for the world’s energy demands. With partners like Google, we’re getting there faster.
