Superconductors on the march! Are we going to see similar effects in the #fusion ecosystem in Europe? Cornelia Hintze how is the panorama in Germany/EU looking like? #supremetech #fusionenergy #superconductors #energy

Helion is indeed working on a fusion power plant, aiming to harness the power of fusion reactions to generate clean electricity. Their approach involves magneto-inertial fusion, which combines magnetic and inertial confinement techniques to achieve a stable plasma state. This method allows for direct electricity generation without the need for thermal conversion, making it potentially more efficient and cost-effective compared to traditional fusion approaches. While there are some concerns and uncertainties surrounding the technology, Helion Energy's high iteration rate and rapid progress are seen as positive indicators. The company has also secured substantial funding, with $500 million invested in their research and development The company's partnership with Microsoft and their goal of achieving net electricity by 2028 further underscore their commitment to commercializing fusion energy.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced a groundbreaking $42 million program to advance foundational inertial fusion energy (IFE) science and technology. This initiative, led by multi-institutional hubs including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, marks a significant stride toward harnessing fusion energy. Fusion, with its potential for abundant, reliable, and non-carbon-emitting energy, aligns with the United States ambitious climate and energy goals. How does this relate to Xometry ? -- Longer-Term Production Projects: Xometry is well-equipped to handle extended manufacturing projects, just as LLNL leads in advancing fusion energy solutions. -- Assembly Work Expertise: With our capabilities in full assembly work, Xometry supports projects ranging from smaller prototypes to large-scale production, echoing the diverse requirements of the IFE-STAR program. --Seamless Transition: Like the IFE-STAR program seamlessly transitioning from low-gain experiments to high gain and high repetition rates, Xometry smoothly transitions from prototypes to long-term production orders. In this season of innovation and collaboration, explore how Xometry can contribute to the success of your next manufacturing project. Jesse Hartheimer and myself can help manage your project from start to finish. Reach out to discuss your specific needs and unlock the potential of our partnership. #Xometry #ManufacturingInnovation #FusionEnergy #DOEInitiative

DLL Solutions is thrilled by the recent breakthrough at the Joint European Torus (JET), where the final tritium experiments have set a new fusion energy record. This achievement, yielding 69 megajoules from a mere 0.2 milligrams of fuel, represents a significant milestone towards realizing fusion energy as a sustainable and low-carbon power source. The success of these experiments, demonstrating high fusion power over five seconds, not only advances our understanding of fusion physics but also solidifies the foundation for future fusion power plants like ITER and DEMO. DLL Solutions is optimistic about the potential of fusion energy to transform the global energy landscape, offering a clean, abundant source of power. #FusionEnergy #SustainablePower #InnovationInEnergy https://lnkd.in/d-3AeyZe

If you want to know a little bit more about our LM26 program, you should read this blog post. In addition to being a great primer, it does an excellent job of highlighting some of the outstanding talent we have at GF!

America is by far the leading country for start-up’s in fusion, triggered when the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) started embracing the private sector efforts in 2018. Continuing cutting edge discovery science efforts in fusion and partnering with private sector start up’s and the world’s leading venture capital community, can position the U.S. to first net-energy out cores, and first pilot plants in the 2030’s.
