TAE Technologies Charts Path to Commercial Fusion With Sixth-Generation Reactor

TAE Technologies is building Copernicus, the sixth reactor in its research line, as part of a plan to reach commercial hydrogen-boron fusion power in the early 2030s, according to a Bloomberg report republished on the company's website. Hydrogen-boron fusion combines hydrogen and boron nuclei rather than the hydrogen isotopes used in most fusion projects, and it does not produce long-lived radioactive waste, a distinction TAE positions as a commercial and regulatory advantage. The company has financed its reactor program largely with private capital instead of government grants. TAE Technologies is a Parkway Venture Capital portfolio company.
