🎉 Becoming HTS manufacturers 🎉 in line with our vertically integrated #stellarator mission and with HTS sales to fusion and non-fusion clients. The spaceship has entered the hangar. The spaceship is preparing for launch. Well, it is not a spaceship but this machine for HTS manufacturing looks like one and will propel Renaissance Fusion into the stardom of #fusionenergy and commercialization of high-temperature #superconductors (#HTS). The arrival of this cutting-edge Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) chamber of our conception marks a significant milestone for the company. The machine will produce high-quality HTS tapes of unusually large width, as well as HTS tapes of traditional 4-12 mm width but unusually large production volumes. “Our investment in advanced superconductor manufacturing underscores our dedication to being at the forefront of technological innovation." said Francesco A. Volpe, CEO of Renaissance Fusion, "We are excited about the capability this machine brings, not only for ourselves but for the industries that will benefit from large production volumes of high-quality HTS.” “We are very excited to announce the installation of our first MOCVD chamber, the result of many months of work by our talented design teams and those who support them.” Commented Patricia Johnson, the deputy head of the HTS Film Deposition Team. This initial line of production (and several others to come) will serve the rapidly growing HTS market in fusion, #windenergy, #electricitytransmission, #medicalimaging, #energystorage, and large, powerful, precise #magnets for “Big Science”, from #particleaccelerators to #synchrotrons. #cuttingedge #fusion #Superconductivity #HighTemperatureSuperconductor #HighTechManufacturing #chemical #mri #innovation #installation

🎉 It’s a wrap! The 15th Carolus Magnus Summer School on Plasma and Fusion Energy Physics has come to a close, concluding two incredible weeks of thoughtful discussions, deep inspirations, and new collaborations. Renaissance Fusion is proud to have co-sponsored this edition alongside ITER Organization Belgium. Our team thoroughly enjoyed engaging with nearly fifty top fusion scientists and international talents, diving deep into topics such as neutral beam injection (NBI), stellarator equilibrium optimization, and plasma-facing liquid metal walls. “I attended the 5th edition of this school back in 2001 when I was a PhD student at the Max Planck Institut für Plasmaphysik in Garching. It was the most instructive summer school that I have ever attended,” said Francesco Volpe, CEO of Renaissance Fusion, “I really learned a lot and I developed enduring bonds with fellow fusion physicists and engineers. It was a pleasure to come back as a sponsor 23 years later and engage with the lecturers and students during the poster session, dinner, and informal discussions over some Belgian beers.” At Renaissance Fusion, we are not only committed to fusion energy commercialization but also to fostering the next generation of fusion professionals. A big thank you to the Laboratory for Plasma Physics and the Royal Military Academy, Belgium for their collaboration in organizing this event. #FusionEnergy #PlasmaPhysics #NeutralBeamInjection #NBI #stellarator #EquilibriumOptimization #PlasmaFacing #LiquidMetalWalls. #RenaissanceFusion #ITERBelgium #CarolusMagnus #Collaboration #Innovation #NextGenFusion #STEM  

“Fusion is our ticket for the future.
