Google places another fusion power bet on TAE Technologies

Nobody said commercializing fusion power would be cheap or quick

Building fusion power technology is a costly and time-consuming endeavor, as evidenced by the recent $150 million funding round raised by TAE Technologies. The round saw investments from major backers such as Google, Chevron, and New Enterprise Associates, bringing TAE’s total funding to approximately $1.8 billion over 12 rounds.

TAE Technologies, formerly known as Tri Alpha Energy, has been in operation for nearly 30 years, quietly developing its innovative reactor design. The company’s initial method involved firing two plasma balls at each other and manipulating the resulting plasma using particle beams. However, in a breakthrough announcement earlier this year, TAE revealed that it had streamlined its process, eliminating the need for firing two plasma balls and reducing the reactor’s size, cost, and complexity.

Google has been a key investor in TAE, participating in multiple funding rounds and collaborating with the company since 2014. Google’s expertise in machine learning has significantly improved TAE’s optimization process, reducing experimentation time from two months to a few hours and paving the way for more efficient fusion device development.

Currently, TAE’s reactor can achieve plasma temperatures of 70 million degrees Celsius, but the company aims to reach 1 billion degrees Celsius for its commercial device. TAE CEO Michl Binderbauer has set ambitious goals for the company, aiming to raise an additional $50 million and potentially connect fusion power to the grid by the early 2030s.
