Canadian nuclear fusion company uses Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF) approach to achieve its first plasma, 23 years after it was founded.

First Light Fusion’s hub for news and media insights, blogs and academic external publications.

Nuclear fusion is the process by which two light atomic nuclei combine to form a single heavier one while releasing massive amounts of energy.

Road map to clean energy using laser beam ignition of boron-hydrogen fusion - Volume 35 Issue 4

Oxford-based UK tech firm Tokamak Energy has reached a milestone in privately-funded fusion research after its ST-40 spherical tokamak reactor reached a temperature of 100 million °C (180 million °F), which it says is the threshold for commercial fusion energy.

Lattice confinement fusion eliminates massive magnets and powerful lasers

On February 8th, scientists associated with the Joint European Torus (JET) fusion experimental facility located in Oxfordshire, UK, announced that they had achieved a sustained fusion reaction releasing 11 megawatts of thermonuclear fusion power burning a deuterium-tritium plasma mixture continuousl...

Experiment spit out 10 quadrillion watts of power in a split second.

These companies are raising millions on promises, not products.

In a recent report, the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) recommends that “the United States should start a national program of accompanying research and technology leading to the construction of a compact pilot plant that produces electricity from fusion at the lowest...
