Collaborative Fusion Partnership Announced by Novatron Fusion Group and Oxford Sigma

The partnership will accelerate Novatron Fusion Group's development of commercial fusion power stations with the new NOVATRON fusion reactor design, an open-field confinement solution for stable magnetic plasma confinement.

The partnership is part of Novatron Fusion Group's goal to streamline nuclear engineering, validate key scientific principles, and prepare for the industrialization of fusion energy.

Within the partnership, Oxford Sigma provides capabilities in systems engineering, fusion materials development, and fusion reactor core design for power plant configurations as well as access to its fusion materials manufacturing resources.

"Working with Oxford Sigma brings invaluable expertise to the development of the NOVATRON. Their knowledge in fusion materials and reactor design is instrumental in tackling key challenges as we advance our concept towards industrial readiness," said Josefin Sjöbohm, Project Leader, Novatron Fusion Group.

Novatron Fusion Group, in turn, will leverage these resources to validate its proprietary confinement solution and complete the conceptual design of its next-generation reactor. This collaboration underscores both organizations' commitment to achieving scalable and efficient fusion energy.

"Joining forces with Novatron Fusion Group enables us to leverage our fusion materials manufacturing capabilities to their fullest potential. Together, we are committed to overcoming the challenges of fusion commercialisation and delivering clean, reliable energy to the world," said Dr Alasdair Morrison, CTO, Oxford Sigma.

"A partnership with Oxford Sigma will accelerate our development of core technologies for the NOVATRON fusion reactor concept. Fusion power is the holy grail for mankind, supplying clean, safe, and abundant energy to industry and society. This can only be achieved in collaborations, combining advanced knowledge, skills, and perseverance," said Peter Roos, CEO, Novatron Fusion Group.

About Novatron Fusion Group

Novatron Fusion Group AB is a Swedish company headquartered in Stockholm. Founded in 2019, the company strives to establish fusion energy and the NOVATRON concept as the preferred large-scale dispatchable source of clean, safe, reliable and virtually limitless fusion power. Inspired by Swedish inventor and entrepreneur Jan Jäderberg's original idea, it is now being developed by world-leading physicists, engineers and academics at a test facility, housed by KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden. The NOVATRON technology remains the world's only stable mirror-machine concept, and aims to streamline the fusion energy process while reducing capital and operational cost of future fusion reactors through a series of USPs. Financial backers include Climentum Capital, EIT InnoEnergy, Granitor, Industrifonden, KTH Holding and Santander InnoEnergy Climate Fund.
