TAE applauds the passing of the Fusion Energy Act. This legislation represents a strong signal of bipartisan support for fusion power as a source of carbon-free energy. It confirms the clear regulatory path that designates fusion as separate from fission set by regulators last year, and promotes the safety of fusion devices. Thank you to the sponsors, Reps. Lori Trahan, Don Beyer, Chuck Fleischmann, Jay Obernolte and Senators Alex Padilla, John Cornyn, Cory Booker, Todd Young and Patty Murray.
Bipartisan E&C Leaders Applaud Passage of Historic Nuclear Energy Package
May 31, 2024
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!

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.

Corporations Join the Nuclear Fusion Craze
Nuclear energy is having a moment. Last month, TAE Technologies Inc., a nuclear fusion company in southern California, raised $250 million. Industry watchers describe the company’s approach, which requires creating a fusion reaction in incredibly high heat, as perhaps the biggest scientific gamble in the field.
Nuclear Fusion Powers Stars. Could It One Day Electrify Earth?
Some companies are exploring different fuels as well as different designs. California-based TAE Technologies, which has been in business since 1998, is building a nuclear reactor that’s designed to fuse hydrogen with boron-11 by colliding plasma “smoke rings” inside a long, cigar-shaped chamber. This setup would need to hit temperatures even higher than those in tokamaks. But if scaled-up versions work, they could generate electricity without the neutron fusillade.
TAE Plots Irvine Expansion
TAE Technologies in Foothill Ranch is one step closer to making its ambitious dream of tapping into almost limitless supplies of energy come true, and is expanding its operations to Irvine to help move those plans forward.
Q&A: Fusion Firm Backed by Google Hopes for Mid-Decade Milestone
TAE Technologies Inc., a nuclear fusion startup backed by Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Chevron Corp. and Japan’s Sumitomo Corp., hopes to see an “essential milestone” on its path to build a commercial fusion reactor by the middle of this decade. TAE’s efforts received a kickstart in July as the fusion startup secured $250 million in its latest funding round.
