Helion Energy

Helion Energy is a private company focused on developing advanced nuclear fusion technology. Unlike traditional nuclear power, which relies on fission (splitting atoms), fusion combines light atomic nuclei, similar to the processes that power the sun. This method promises a cleaner, safer energy source with minimal waste and no risk of catastrophic failures. Helion aims to create a compact fusion reactor that can generate electricity commercially, potentially transforming the energy landscape by providing abundant and sustainable power. Their approach involves innovative engineering and technology to accelerate the timeline for practical fusion energy use.
