We decouple energy from fuels and emissions
by building a super-star on earth.
Stellarators (from ‘stella’, Latin for ‘star’) are the most efficient, steady and stable fusion reactors on earth. We make them smaller, simpler and even more efficient.
At Renaissance Fusion we build the (in)credible High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) and liquid metal shields that will bring stellarators out of the lab and onto the grid.
1. Direct deposition of HTS coils; a large surface, for instance a cylinder, is directly coated with several superconducting films.
2. Direct patterning of HTS coils; the surface is then engraved by laser ablation to create 1D/2D coils
3. Simplified assembly of stellarator coil winding surfaces; toroidal array of patterned cylinders generates the 3D stellarator field.
4. Neutron shielding and heat extraction; cylinders are coated with flowing liquid metals
Who we are
As the only magnetic confinement fusion start-up in continental Europe, we work in a region that is home to 40% of the world’s talent, labs, universities in the field and with ITER, has fostered a unique ecosystem of related industries.
We’re rebels rooted in solid science, we think creatively outside the box and re-invent engineering under economic constraints.
In 2050 we will need to meet 2x the current energy demand. At zero CO2 emissions.
We will need renewables and energy storage. And a safe, abundant, load-following, fuel- and land-efficient energy source.
Fusion is that source.
