Fusion power startup Cambridge Heavy Industries is quietly developing a small, laser-powered desktop fusion device aimed at accelerating the deployment of fusion power plants. The compact design could make fusion research and development more accessible beyond large-scale facilities.
Background
Nuclear fusion has long been pursued as a clean, nearly limitless energy source, with massive facilities like ITER leading global efforts. Compact fusion devices from startups are gaining attention as a potential pathway to democratize fusion R&D.
