What is Realta fusion?

Realta Fusion is an early-stage spin-out from the University of Wisconsin-Madison developing the lowest capital and least complex path to commercially competitive fusion energy. We are applying advances in super-conducting materials, plasma physics, and computing power to a simple linear fusion reactor configuration.

What's happening with Realta & Proxima fusion?

In fact, Realta’s announcement isn’t the only one this week. On Tuesday, another startup, Proxima Fusion, announced a €7 million seed round led by Plural Platform and UVC Partners to commercialize the stellarator technology developed at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics for its Wendelstein 7-X reactor.

What is fusion energy?

This is the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) released annually into the atmosphere from energy combustion (including flaring) and industrial processes, accelerating climate change. Fusion offers a clean and sustainable energy source to reduce emissions from “hard-to-decarbonize” industrial processes. Join Realta Fusion!

How does Realta fusion generator work?

How does Realta's fusion generator work? Realta's approach uses magnetic mirrors to channel two abundant fuels — deuterium, a form of hydrogen extracted from water, and tritium, which can be extracted from lithium — into a central chamber where it is heated up to extremely high temperatures.

What is fusion power?

Fusion power is the sort of high-risk, high-reward bet that was once the stock-and-trade for venture capital firms. Fusion might be a risky source of power, but as Realta is showing, it’s also flexible, providing not just electricity but also heat and neutrons, which are widely used to produce isotopes for medical use.

Why did titletowntech invest in Realta fusion?

TitletownTech on Wednesday announced it invested in Realta Fusion to help the company advance its development of a compact fusion generator and its connections with companies and industries that could benefit from its fusion machines in the future.
