european green tech firm gauss fusion

Private UK company Tokamak Energy has signed a strategic collaboration with European green tech firm Gauss Fusion that will aim to advance transformative high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets and accelerate commercial fusion technology. Gauss Fusion is among the leaders in the industrialisation of fusion energy – having announced a series of tie ups with Italy, Spain, Germany, and France in July – while Tokamak Energy’s business division TE Magnetics has expertise in HTS technology. A commercial fusion plant would be fuelled using two isotopes of hydrogen – deuterium and tritium. The fuel would be heated to form a plasma – that is, an ionised gas comprised of charged particles which can be confined and controlled by powerful magnetic fields. When superheated, the deuterium and tritium combine to produce helium and neutrons, releasing enormous amounts of… Read More »Tokamak Energy partners with Gauss Fusion to advance commercial fusion and helium | Technology Gas News
