We are on the path toward the world’s first operational fusion power plant — and we’re building momentum with every step.
By offering advanced engineering services for system integration, and by developing a pioneering test facility to validate key technologies, we are creating value already today.
Our broader commercial strategy is designed to accelerate the path to fusion energy and shape the future — with commercial success at each step.
The Volumetric Neutron Source next provides exactly that: A particle accelerator driven validation facility operating with a continuous Deuterium-Tritium (DT) plasma. Designed as a volumetric neutron source, it replicates the 14 MeV environment of future fusion power plants – enabling the qualification of key components including breeding blankets and fuel cycle systems, tritium handling and remote maintenance technologies.
These systems are essential across all fusion concepts, from tokamaks to stellarators and inertial confinement – making the facility a truly enabling platform for the global fusion community.
Proposed by EUROfusion, recognized by leading fusion experts and supported by the Fusion Expert Group, this facility is a critical milestone not only for our own fusion strategy – but closes the gap between research and operational readiness by serving as a testing platform for future reactor developers worldwide.
While most fusion projects remain focused solely on long-term energy production, next unlocks a unique commercial opportunity in the near term: the production of high-value medical and industrial radioisotopes.
Enabled by the facility’s continuous DT operation and 14 MeV neutron environment, this is the first mid-term business case in fusion — offering the potential to generate meaningful returns on infrastructure investment well before commercial fusion based power generation becomes reality.
By combining technology validation with a revenue-generating use case, our platform turns fusion from a distant dream into a stepwise commercial reality.
Be part of the partnership framework that accelerates fusion development and unlocks new industrial opportunities.
