TAE Technologies, the leading fusion energy company developing the cleanest and safest approach to commercial fusion power, today announced that it has raised more than $150 million in its latest funding round, exceeding the company’s initial target for the round. Chevron, Google and NEA participated in the round, among other new and existing investors. TAE has the option to raise additional capital as part of this funding round. With more than $1.3 billion in equity capital raised since inception, this latest fundraise further validates TAE’s distinctive approach to commercial fusion.

In a statement Michl Binderbauer, CEO of TAE Technologies, said: “Fusion has the potential to transform the energy landscape, providing near-limitless clean power at a time when the world’s energy needs are growing exponentially due to the growth of AI and data centers. TAE’s technology uses the soundest physics to deliver superior performance in a compact machine, with attractive economics and best-in-class maintainability. We are leading the charge to develop revolutionary fusion technology for full-scale commercial deployment.”

TAE was founded in 1998 to develop commercial fusion power with the cleanest environmental profile. The company has established itself as a leader in an industry that has the potential to transform the energy economy. Since 2014, TAE and Google Research have worked together to accelerate fusion science using cutting-edge machine learning. Google engineers worked onsite at TAE facilities to co-develop advanced plasma reconstruction algorithms, leading to significantly improved plasma lifetime and performance. Fusion is nature’s preferred source of energy. It is the same process that powers the sun and stars, and it is what makes life viable on Earth. When lighter elements fuse under immense heat and pressure, they form new elements and release a tremendous amount of energy. This process is safer than conventional nuclear power because fusion can be stopped at any time – eliminating the risk of a power plant meltdown. TAE remains singularly committed to advancing the frontiers of science and innovation to benefit humanity. With a steadfast resolve to redefine the energy landscape, TAE Technologies is at the forefront of the fusion revolution, poised to usher in a new era of sustainable and limitless power generation for a better tomorrow.
