Pacific Fusion

Energy · San Diego, United States · Founded 2023

Pacific Fusion is at the forefront of the race to develop commercially viable nuclear fusion energy. The company is building on recent breakthroughs in pulsed magnetic inertial fusion to create a high-gain fusion system that could revolutionize the global energy landscape. Their approach combines established science with practical engineering and affordable manufacturing. The system uses fast-rising, high-current pulses to magnetically squeeze and heat small containers of deuterium-tritium fuel, driving it to fusion conditions. This process is designed to achieve net facility gain, producing more fusion energy output than the total stored energy input. What sets Pacific Fusion apart is its focus on pragmatic economics. The company's system is highly modular, consisting of a fast electric pulser built from thousands of identical parts, a small fusion chamber, and many tiny fuel containers. This design enables affordable manufacturing, rapid iteration, and simplified supply chains. With over $900 million in Series A funding from prominent investors, Pacific Fusion is well-positioned to accelerate its development efforts. The company aims to address the growing global energy demand and contribute to solving the climate crisis by providing a source of limitless, clean, on-demand power that could drive prosperity around the world.
