General Fusion

General Fusion pursues a commercially oriented path toward fusion energy by developing a magnetized target fusion (MTF) technology. The company applies advances in plasma physics, modern electronics, materials, and compression mechanisms to generate fusion-relevant conditions. It operates a demonstration system, Lawson Machine 26 (LM26), that injects magnetized plasma into a liquid metal liner and compresses it using coordinated mechanical pistons to reach high temperatures and pressures. The technology serves as a practical stepping stone toward building a fusion demonstration facility and ultimately delivering fusion-derived electricity to the grid. The approach focuses on closing the gap between demonstration milestones and a deployable power-plant system.
