One year after publishing the world’s first measurements of a magnetically confined hydrogen-boron fusion plasma, TAE and Japan’s National Institute for Fusion Science have completed another round of successful joint p-B11 experiments 🎉

Hydrogen-boron, or p-B11, is the cleanest, safest and most sustainable fuel choice available for fusion. By testing this fuel source with NIFS’ Large Helical Device, TAE can optimize its technology and accelerate delivery of hydrogen-boron fusion to the world.

For this month’s experiments, TAE’s Chief Science Officer Toshiki Tajima and VP of Program Management and Science Fellow Hiroshi Gota traveled to Japan to work side by side with the NIFS team, including NIFS’ Director General, Professor Zensho Yoshida, and NIFS’ Executive Director of the LHD Project, Professor Masaki Osakabe, pictured above.

The more we learn about the potential of hydrogen-boron fusion, the more excited we are about its future benefit to humanity

TAE’s Policy Chief R. David Edelman and VP of Program Management Hiroshi Gota capped off a great week in Washington, D.C. today with a luncheon on fusion’s breakthroughs, co-hosted by Edelman, the Institute for Education and the Embassy of Japan 🌸

The fastest path to commercial fusion will be the one built with global collaboration. Thank you to Japanese Amb. to the US Shigeo Yamada and long-time TAE friend and investor Coach Kathy Kemper for collaborating with us on this event!

From fusion to fast charging, it was a pleasure to give California Sen. Catherine Blakespear a tour of TAE’s offices.

TAE is creating the tools our leaders will need to electrify transportation and generate clean, affordable energy.

Caring about the environment includes protecting our winters. It’s why TAE is a proud sponsor of Natural Selection Tour and its mission to preserve the beauty of mother nature.

The faster we can achieve a carbon-free future, the better we can conserve the natural world.

Our work is about investing in the future, and that includes building the next generation of scientific innovators. TAE’s Manager of Program Management Tania Schindler was honored to join the brilliant students in Irvine Unified School District as the keynote speaker on physics careers for this year’s Science Fair Awards Ceremony held at University Lab Partners, which left us inspired about the future talent coming out of our community.

Congratulations to all the participants!
