Helion

Overview

Helion Energy, Inc. is a fusion research company based in Everett, Washington, focused on developing magneto-inertial fusion technology to produce clean and affordable electricity from aneutronic fusion, utilizing fuel derived from water. The organization aims to build the world's first fusion power plant, positioning itself to replace fossil fuels with reliable baseload fusion power for applications ranging from homes to businesses.

Advancements are underway through staged magnetic compression of Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) plasmas, with key prototypes such as Polaris expected to be operational by mid-2025 and the under-construction Copernicus, aimed at demonstrating net energy viability. Plans are in motion to design a 50 MW Orion prototype to supply power to Microsoft datacenters by 2028. Future initiatives include commercial plant deployments in the early 2030s, energy storage, and EV powertrain components.
