The surest path to limitless, clean fusion energy

What we do

Decades of worldwide, government-sponsored research in fusion science have established the tokamak-based configuration as the highest performing  approach to fusion. Yet in the past, tokamaks had to be enormous in size to produce net energy from fusion. CFS is using revolutionary high temperature superconducting magnets developed in collaboration with MIT to build smaller and lower-cost tokamak fusion systems. CFS is manufacturing these magnets and building the  world’s first commercially-relevant net energy fusion machine, called SPARC. SPARC will pave the way for the world’s first fusion power plant, called ARC. CFS has assembled a world-class team working to design, build, and scale fusion power plants that will deliver cost competitive, clean fusion energy to combat climate change.

Company's story

Our Specialty
SPARC: Fusion Energy Demonstration

Commonwealth Fusion Systems is collaborating with MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center to build SPARC, the world’s first fusion device that produces plasmas which generate more energy than they consume, becoming the first net-energy fusion machine. SPARC will pave the way to safe, carbon-free, limitless fusion power. This compact high-field tokamak will be built with HTS magnets, allowing for a smaller device than previous magnet technology. SPARC is an important step to accelerate the development of commercial fusion energy.
Our story
Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) was spun out of MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center to leverage the decades of fusion research combined with the innovation and speed of the private sector. Supported by the world’s leading investors in breakthrough energy technologies, the CFS team is uniquely positioned to deliver the fastest path to commercial fusion energy. CFS has assembled a world-class team to design and build fusion machines. This team includes experts in magnets, manufacturing, and plasma physics dedicated to the mission of delivering clean, limitless fusion power to the world.
