Today we’re celebrating what would have been the 99th birthday of our late technology co-founder, Dr. Norman Rostoker
A renowned fusion innovator, mentor and friend, Rostoker was instrumental in shaping TAE as we know it today.
From our compact linear device, to our advanced beam-driven field-reversed configuration, to our ultimate goal of delivering commercial fusion power with the cleanest and safest fuel, Rostoker’s legacy lives on in our work.

Our original hydrogen-boron fusion R&D has already sparked two spin-off innovations that support our mission for a cleaner, healthier future:
Biologically targeted radiation therapy for the most difficult-to-treat cancers, via TAE Life Sciences
Smarter, more efficient power management systems for our electrified future with TAE Power Solutions
“We don’t see these as side projects,” TAE Power Solutions’ Chief Strategy Officer Lu-Fong Chua told The Guardian. “We see these as byproducts that have very high intrinsic value on their own for problems and challenges beyond energy generation.”

When brilliant minds come together, high energy results aren’t far behind.
For the 6th year in a row, TAE Technologies has won an INFUSE award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for innovative fusion research conducted in partnership with a DOE National Lab.
This year’s grant goes to TAE’s Director of Computational Sciences Sean Dettrick, who will partner with the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) to validate TAE’s FRC approach to plasma formation and its impact on improving power plant operations.
This research will not only accelerate TAE’s goal of bringing hydrogen-boron fusion to the grid, but it will also help equip the fusion industry with essential insights for future commercialization. Congratulations to Sean and the teams at TAE and PPPL!

We are proud to announce that TAE has been chosen as the first private fusion energy company to partner with ITER Organization, the world’s largest fusion experiment. Together, we will work to advance the development of fusion power and a well-trained workforce.
We recently had the pleasure of hosting ITER Director General Pietro Barabaschi at TAE’s California HQ to tour our original fusion prototype and current fifth-generation National Laboratory-scale machine, Norman.
We look forward to a fruitful collaboration for a cleaner, brighter future

Will nuclear fusion solve our climate change problem for good?
Nuclear fusion is the reaction that powers stars and scientists say replicating it on Earth could produce all the energy we’ll ever need without the CO2.
Nuclear fusion could actually be on the cusp of commercial viability
Growing investment and collaboration are making nuclear fusion more viable than ever.
How Inventing Fusion Could Mean a Long-Term Solution for Rising Heating Prices
Ahead of the cold winter weather, there is a rush on heating fuel in Ireland, where people are stockpiling turf logs — a uniquely Irish fuel that is made from dried-out bricks of peat cut from the country’s once extensive boglands.
The End of Scarcity
Nuclear fusion is the primordial source of the sun’s energy. For decades, scientists have been trying to re-create it on Earth. Now they’re closer than ever to achieving it—and to unlocking a future of clean power for all.
Nuclear Fusion and Climate Change: ‘We Need Every Technology We Can Get’
Nuclear fusion might be one of the most valuable tools humans will develop to battle climate change—but will we all be underwater by the time it gets here? There is no question that the next few years are critical. “We know that we can do some impact positively with renewables, no question. But we also know that they can’t do 100 percent,” TAE Technologies CEO Michl Binderbauer told Newsweek. “What ideally happens is we maximize solar and wind as soon as we can in areas where it makes sense … And hopefully, very quickly, you’re ramping fusion.”
TAE Technologies Announces Appointment of Chief Science Officer to International Union of Pure and Applied Physics
