If you love plasma physics, this might be the most wonderful time of year: The 66th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics (DPP) kicks off today in Atlanta, GA! TAE will be onsite with 13 posters to share about our current fusion research. Our Director of Computational Sciences, Sean Dettrick, will also participate in a mini-conference highlighting the work of legendary theoretical plasma physicist Bob Dewar. See you at #APSDPP!

Come learn about TAE the future of clean fusion energy! Learn about TAE's clean fusion energy! 🗓️ November 1st - "De-risk to Deploy" https://lnkd.in/eMtcdXp7

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 here: https://lnkd.in/gA6Gz6xK ⚛️ Catch up on our latest fusion research here: TAE.com/research #fusionenergy #cleanenergy #powermanagement #cleanpower

Download the first poster in our new printable series at the link! https://lnkd.in/ej2yb5fM 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. ⚛️💡 #PowerPossibilities #FusionEnergy #CleanEnergy #SustainablePower #Innovation

When TAE began, our founding team imagined a future with carbon-free, on-demand electricity from the cleanest and safest approach to fusion power. Today, we’re building our 6th fusion research reactor to demonstrate the viability of net energy with our unique approach to fusion. In the words of George Bernard Shaw, “Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last, you create what you will.” To help inspire your imagination for the future of fusion power, check out our new printable art series “Power Possibilities,” which illustrates the potential of what we can do with hydrogen-boron fusion energy 💡 Download the first posters here:

Congratulations to the TAE team and all of our collaborators on our new publication in Nuclear Fusion! https://bit.ly/3yU8WBB TAE’s fifth-generation fusion machine, Norman, has further improved plasma performance across the key elements of a fusion reaction, including extended steady-state operations (up to 40 milliseconds; limited by neutral-beam pulse length), enhanced plasma energy output (Etot ~13 kJ), and enhanced electron temperature (Te ~1 keV). This progress was achieved in strong collaboration with some of our frequent research partners – including UC Irvine, UCLA, UC San Diego, Google, PPPL, Nihon University and University of Saskatchewan -- and it puts us exactly where we want to be as we pursue demonstrating the viability of net energy generation from our approach!

Today we’re celebrating what would have been the 99th birthday of our late technology co-founder, Dr. Norman Rostoker 🎂 A renowned fusion innovator, mentor and friend, Rostoker was instrumental in shaping TAE as we know it today. From our compact linear device, to our advanced beam-driven field-reversed configuration, to our ultimate goal of delivering commercial fusion power with the cleanest and safest fuel, Rostoker’s legacy lives on in our work ✨

Our original hydrogen-boron fusion R&D has already sparked two spin-off innovations that support our mission for a cleaner, healthier future: 🔬Biologically targeted radiation therapy for the most difficult-to-treat cancers, via TAE Life Sciences 🔋Smarter, more efficient power management systems for our electrified future with TAE Power Solutions “We don’t see these as side projects,” TAE Power Solutions’ Chief Strategy Officer Lu-Fong Chua told The Guardian. “We see these as byproducts that have very high intrinsic value on their own for problems and challenges beyond energy generation.” Read more at the link: https://bit.ly/3M4uRcm

When brilliant minds come together, high energy results aren’t far behind 💡 For the 6th year in a row, TAE Technologies has won an INFUSE award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for innovative fusion research conducted in partnership with a DOE National Lab. This year’s grant goes to TAE’s Director of Computational Sciences Sean Dettrick, who will partner with the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) to validate TAE’s FRC approach to plasma formation and its impact on improving power plant operations. This research will not only accelerate TAE’s goal of bringing hydrogen-boron fusion to the grid, but it will also help equip the fusion industry with essential insights for future commercialization. Congratulations to Sean and the teams at TAE and PPPL! Learn more about their award-winning research project here: https://lnkd.in/eenrE3g4

The Fusion Industry Association’s 2024 annual report shows steady growth in commercial fusion – from advancing the science to expanding its workforce – and private companies are leading the way. In the past year, the TAE team has: 🏗️ Completed construction on a new facility for our sixth-generation fusion research reactor, Copernicus 🎨 Completed Copernicus’ primary device design 🏁 Finished building ancillary component test beds for Copernicus, which we’ve also started operating ✍️ Published dozens of peer-reviewed research on our unique approach to hydrogen-boron fusion Those are just a few of the highlights you’ll see from us in the report.
