Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ second breakthrough superconducting technology handles mammoth pulses of power

DEVENS, Mass., Oct. 30, 2024 — Commonwealth Fusion Systems, the world’s largest fusion company, has for the first time detailed its PIT VIPER superconducting cable technology. It’s the second foundational electromagnet technology the company developed for its effort to build compact, powerful, and economical fusion energy power plants.​

ZyFKSK8jQArT0AD5_20241018-PIT-VIPER-block-closeup-1-.jpg

PIT VIPER cable technology enables powerful magnets needed to make fusion machines commercially viable at scale.

​The journal Superconductor Science and Technology in October published CFS’ peer-reviewed PIT VIPER superconducting cable paper. The research shows that the company’s high-temperature superconductor (HTS) cables work under arduous conditions and, importantly, can be manufactured at scale.

Environmental Venture Capitalists Know That

Fusion Energy is the Technology That Will

Provide the World Our Energy Future

In this video The Emerson Collective's 

Julien Barber delivers a succinct talk on fusion power today – why we need it, how it works, and its extraordinary benefits – with a clear assessment of the strategic hurdles we must overcome to make it happen.

We need more clean, safe, reliable power to meet the skyrocketing demand driven by population growth, AI, and electrification of industry. Fusion is our best tool to get there

Plus, it's closer than you think!! Science and engineering are no longer the biggest barriers keeping fusion electrons from the grid. The biggest risk we face is capital. At EC, we're investing in energy's holy grail because now is the time to press on the gas

Zap Energy achieves 37-million-degree temperatures in a compact device

Commercial Fusion

New publication reports record electron temperatures for a small-scale, sheared-flow-stabilized Z-pinch fusion device.
6614650475cc33e0b8ee25ba_20220907_Zap Energy Z Pinch Capture-1800.jpg

A bright flash of light from a FuZE (Fusion Z-pinch Experiment) plasma.

new research paper, published this month in Physical Review Letters, details measurements made on Zap Energy’s Fusion Z-pinch Experiment (FuZE) of 1-3 keV plasma electron temperatures — roughly the equivalent of 11 to 37 million degrees Celsius (20 to 66 million degrees Fahrenheit).

In the nine decades since humans first produced fusion reactions, only a few fusion technologies have demonstrated the ability to make a thermal fusion plasma with electron temperatures hotter than 10 million degrees Celsius, roughly the temperature of the core of the sun. Zap Energy’s unique approach, known as a sheared-flow-stabilized Z pinch, has now joined those rarefied ranks, far exceeding this plasma temperature milestone in a device that is a fraction of the scale of its competitors.

General Fusion Confirms Liquid Wall Compression Technology for Commercial Magnetized Target Fusion in New Scientific Publication

Commercial Fusion

RICHMOND, Canada (January 11, 2024): General Fusion has published new, peer-reviewed scientific results that validate the company has achieved the smooth, rapid, and symmetric compression of a liquid cavity that is key to the design of a commercial Magnetized Target Fusion power plant. The results, published in one of the foremost scientific journals in fusion, Fusion Engineering and Design, validate the performance of General Fusion’s proprietary liquid compression technology for Magnetized Target Fusion and are scalable to a commercial machine.

NRC to Regulate Fusion Energy Systems

Based on Existing Nuclear Materials Licensing

10 C.F.R. Part 30 is Accepted

Today, Friday, April 14th, 2023, The Commission has approved the staff’s -SECY-23-0001- Option 2 to license and regulate fusion energy systems under the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s byproduct material framework contained in 10 C.F.R. Part 30, “Rules of General Applicability to Domestic Licensing of Byproduct Material,” and associated regulations. 

hanson.jpg

NRC Chair Christopher T. Hanson- “Dozens of companies are developing pilot-scale commercial fusion designs, and while the technology’s precise future in the United States is uncertain, the agency should provide as much regulatory certainty as possible given what we know today. Licensing near-term fusion energy systems under a byproduct material framework will protect public health and safety with a technology-neutral, scalable regulatory approach.”

Achievement of Ion Temperatures in Excess of 100 million Degrees

Kelvin in the Compact High-Field Spherical Tokamak ST40

Peer Reviewed - Open Access - Accepted Manuscript  

FREE Download

Ion temperatures of over 100 million degrees Kelvin (8.6keV) have been produced in the ST40 compact high-field spherical tokamak (ST). Ion temperatures in excess of 5keV have not previously been reached in any ST and have only been obtained in much larger devices with substantially more plasma heating power. The corresponding fusion triple product is calculated to be ni0Ti0τE≈6±2×1018m-3keVs. These results demonstrate for the first time that ion temperatures relevant for commercial magnetic confinement fusion can be obtained in a compact high-field spherical tokamak and bode well for fusion power plants based on the high-field ST.

Devens MA, Feb 10, 2023 Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) officially opened its new campus

to support the development and deployment of commercial fusion energy.

Phase 1 development of the new campus, which broke ground 18 months ago, includes:

SPARC facility: SPARC is a compact tokamak fusion device that will produce fusion power at a level needed to design commercially viable power plants. SPARC is based on the previously demonstrated HTS technology and builds on decades of proven tokamak science. SPARC is predicted through peer reviewed papers and based on the same assumptions in large international projects to produce over 100 MW of fusion power at fusion gains of Q>10. The facility, under active construction, will be operational in 2025 and achieve net energy soon thereafter, demonstrating that the fusion plasmas can form the basis of a power source and pave the way for the first fusion power plant, ARC, that is expected to start feeding energy into the grid in the early 2030s.

20230207-ST80-Quarter-Full-Height-Cutaway-Compressed-JPG-1536x960.jpg

Our next device, ST80-HTS, aims to validate key engineering solutions needed to make commercial fusion a reality and will showcase our world-class magnet technology at scale. It’s clear public and private partnerships of this nature will be a crucial catalyst for fusion to deliver global energy security and mitigate climate change.”
