Marvel Fusion develops fusion energy using low-neutronic fuels, short-pulsed lasers, and nanostructured targets for efficient, scalable solutions
About Marvel Fusion
Marvel Fusion, established in Munich in 2019, is advancing a novel approach to commercial fusion energy. The company employs highly intense short-pulsed lasers and proprietary nanostructured fuel targets to facilitate a non-thermal direct drive inertial confinement fusion process. This method aims to achieve efficient fusion reactions using low-neutronic fuels, such as hydrogen-boron, which produce minimal long-lived radioactive waste.

In August 2023, Marvel Fusion partnered with Colorado State University (CSU) to construct a $150 million laser facility on CSU's Foothills Campus. This state-of-the-art facility will house at least three multi-petawatt laser systems, each capable of firing ten pulses per second, making it one of the most powerful laser facilities globally. The collaboration aims to advance laser-driven fusion research and develop a safe, clean, and reliable energy source.
Marvel Fusion's scientific leadership includes experts such as Georg Korn and Hartmut Ruhl, with support from renowned physicists like Nobel laureate Gérard Mourou, Siegfried Glenzer from Stanford University, and Florian Metzler from MIT. The company has secured €105 million in private funding and public cooperation projects, employing a team of 70 professionals.
In addition to its U.S. initiatives, Marvel Fusion conducts experiments at Ludwig-Maximilian-University Munich's CALA laser and the ELI-NP laser in Romania. These efforts contribute to the company's research and development endeavors, aiming to demonstrate significant fusion reactions and validate theoretical models.
Marvel Fusion's mission is to enable access to clean, safe, and reliable energy by building a laser-driven fusion power plant, contributing to the global transition toward sustainable energy solutions.
