Technology Assessment & Commercial Milestones

Compact spherical tokamak program built around ultra-high-field REBCO magnets and a multi-channel direct energy conversion (DEC) system, with a staged fuel transition toward aneutronic D-³He. Thesis: Couple spherical-tokamak compactness with direct energy conversion to skip the steam cycle entirely and reach grid-ready economics on aneutronic fuel. Key engineering bottlenecks: Helium-3 supply at commercial scale; DEC channel efficiency at MW power densities; HTS magnet stresses in spherical geometry. Recent milestones: 2024 — Multi-channel DEC subsystem patent disclosures. Timeline: Pilot plant late 2030s.
