Helical Fusion

Japan · Climate tech

Helical Fusion develops helical fusion technology and the engineering systems needed for a future electricity-generating plant.

Engineering continuous fusion operation

The company’s Helix programme combines high-temperature superconducting magnets with systems for handling heat and maintaining a fusion device. Its helical approach is designed around steady operation rather than repeated short pulses.

Helix HARUKA is an integrated demonstration project supporting development of Helix KANATA, the company’s planned first power plant. Helical Fusion targets operation in the 2030s; its current work centres on development and demonstration.
