No tricks over here, just a treat! The next installment in our “Fusion Future” poster series is now available!
This custom artwork takes inspiration from TAE’s vision for greener, fusion-powered communities. With access to hydrogen-boron fusion power plants, the world’s neighborhoods could thrive with increased electrification of transportation, homes, schools and businesses – as well as future-focused innovations like vertical farming for a climate-resilient local food supply.
As the world’s energy consumption continues to climb, we’re going to need an abundant, carbon-free, reliable power source to match that need. Fusion is the solution.

Another successful APS Division of Plasma Physics conference is in the books!
The TAE team headed to Atlanta this month to present 13 new posters and a contributed talk highlighting our advanced plasma performance and stability with optimized neutral beam injection; new diagnostic tools; and enhanced modeling frameworks.
That’s just the tip of the research iceberg – to see the results of our hard work in the lab this year, visit TAE.com/research for more

The latest release in our “Fusion Future” poster series is here!
“The Path to Fusion Power” is inspired by TAE’s vision for compact, aneutronic fusion power plants fueled with hydrogen-boron.
Hydrogen-boron is the safest possible fuel for fusion, with zero carbon emissions, no long-lived radioactive waste, and more than 100,000 years of supply accessible all around the world.
Using this approach, TAE Fusion Power energy plants would be safe enough to be placed even in the middle of a bustling city – no high-voltage transmission lines, deep mining, or miles of acreage required

TAE had the pleasure of hosting the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) at our California headquarters.
Thank you to Harriet Kung, the Acting Director of the Office of Science, and JP Allain, the DOE’s Associate Director for Fusion Energy Sciences, for joining us on a tour of our 5th-generation fusion research reactor and our TAE Power Solutions lab!
TAE CEO Michl Binderbauer; Chief Science Officer Dr. Toshiki Tajima; VP of Fusion Energy Erik Trask; TAE Power Solutions CEO Kedar Munipella; UC Irvine Vice Chancellor Pramod Khargonekar; and University of California Vice President for Research & Innovation Theresa Maldonado joined these DOE leaders to discuss TAE’s clean energy ecosystem.
We’re developing a clean, safe, economical approach to commercial fusion power, and our TAE Power Solutions team creates the technology our world needs to advance more efficient EVs and battery energy storage systems.
Read more on what’s coming from TAE Power Solutions.
Catch up on our latest fusion research.

Imagine a world without pollution, extraction and scarcity – a world powered by good, clean energy. A world in which reliable fusion power complements wind and solar, providing unlimited on-demand electricity. That’s what TAE has been working toward since 1998. We’re unlocking the power of the sun and stars right here on Earth with hydrogen-boron – the safest, most sustainable form of fusion. In the fusion-powered future, you can flip on a light and cool off your home without a second thought about your carbon footprint. TAE’s emissions-free, radioactive-free fusion power is not just clean energy; it is a pathway to a bright and energetic world.
Nuclear fusion could transform the energy sector. Chevron and Alphabet are already investing.
The latest step toward pollution-free power has the potential to transform the energy sector, perhaps decades from now, but some companies are already positioning themselves to benefit.
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said on Tuesday that scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California had made “a tremendous scientific breakthrough” in their tests of nuclear fusion, the reaction that powers the sun. While prior efforts to achieve fusion—combining two hydrogen atoms to produce helium in a reaction that produces energy—consumed more energy than they released, the Livermore scientists flipped the balance.
The promises of fusion energy and what a research breakthrough could mean
The promise of zero-carbon energy has long been too good to be true, but researchers say they’ve found a breakthrough in what’s known as fusion energy. Fusion energy is a process that occurs in our Sun and other stars and doesn’t emit greenhouse gasses or radioactive waste.
Scientists produce nuclear fusion breakthrough
The Department of Energy is expected to announce tomorrow that researchers at the Lawrence Livermore National Lab in California have used lasers to produce a nuclear fusion reaction that creates energy. NBC News’ Tom Costello shares more about what scientists are calling the “Holy Grail” of clean energy.
U.S. to report breakthrough in clean energy
Basically the sun in a box. To talk about what this may mean in the long term implications I’m joined by Michael — CEO of T 80 technologies, the private fusion energy company. Michael, great to have you on the show. You have the tough job here of explaining this to our audience. In layman’s terms, explain exactly what’s being achieved here?
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.
