About us

TAE Technologies (pronounced T-A-E) was founded in 1998 to develop commercial fusion power with the cleanest environmental profile. The company’s pioneering work represents the fastest, most practical, and economically competitive solution to bring abundant clean energy to the grid. With more than 2,300 patents filed globally and approximately 1,400 granted, more than $1.2 billion in private capital raised, five generations of National Laboratory-scale devices built along with two more in development, and an experienced team of over 600 employees, TAE is now on the cusp of delivering this transformational energy source capable of sustaining the planet for thousands of years. The company’s revolutionary technologies have produced a robust portfolio of commercial innovations in large adjacent markets such as power management, energy storage, electric mobility, fast charging, life sciences, and more. TAE is based in California, and maintains international offices in the UK, EU, and Switzerland. Multidisciplinary and mission-driven by nature, TAE is leveraging proprietary science and engineering to create a bright future.

  • TAE’s approach to clean, safe and abundant commercial fusion power would meet growing energy demand while delivering a turning point in American competitiveness, economic security, and global energy independence. Read more from TAE CEO Michl Binderbauer on the importance of US fusion energy R&D in CNBC: https://lnkd.in/gCfkWij6

  • We’re delighted to announce that TAE Technologies CEO Michl Binderbauer will join tomorrow’s CERAWeek conference as an invited speaker! https://bit.ly/41FshSx As part of the “Navigating Fusion to Final Investment Decision (FID): A Strategic Timeline” panel, Binderbauer will share insights on our journey toward clean, sustainable fusion energy and how our team has addressed technical, financial and regulatory considerations to progress with our proprietary fusion approach. His expertise in scaling our Advanced Beam-Driven Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) technology is pivotal in our mission to deliver carbon-free baseload power. Fellow panelists include Type One Energy CFO and General Counsel Charlie Baynes-Reid; Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Steven Koonin; and moderator S&P Global Head of Energy Transition Ashutosh Singh. If you’ll be in Houston for CERAWeek, you can join the conversation on Tuesday, March 11 at 11 a.m. CST.

    For half a century, fusion energy has been a great dream & great disappointment. Maybe the path to success requires a radically different approach -- one that, at first, looks even more challenging. In my latest Invisible Universe column, I discuss an alternate energy future with Michl Binderbauer of TAE Technologies. https://lnkd.in/e5dVCA5C

    • Norman, TAE’s fifth-generation fusion platform, is named after fusion energy pioneer and late co-creator of the company’s proprietary technology, Dr. Norman Rostoker. The National Laboratory-scale device combines proprietary power management technology and accelerator beam-driven field-reversed configuration (FRC) for compact and efficient operations. This illustration shows how the FRC works.
  • Science as complex as nuclear fusion rarely happens alone. That’s why TAE has cultivated deep relationships with world-leading scientists on our path to delivering clean, safe commercial fusion power.  Last week, we spent time with some of those partners, beginning with the Fusion Industry Association’s annual conference. Attended by TAE’s Chief Policy & Global Affairs Officer and FIA Board Member R. David Edelman, this event is a showcase of the variety of viable fusion concepts in development, and it underscores how fusion has evolved from a hopeful pursuit to a growing commercial reality. The FIA conference is also a clear reflection of the global effort behind fusion power, spanning from TAE’s headquarters in Southern California to critical research collaborations with allies like Japan. At the Japanese Embassy last week, Edelman and TAE VP of Program Management and Science Fellow Hiroshi Gota joined a panel on building commercial fusion power plants, and how collaborative relationships like TAE’s work with Japan –including hydrogen-boron fusion research with NIFS and supply chain development with Sumitomo – will help everyone overcome inevitable hurdles faster. With energy demand as great as it is – and expected to exponentially rise – collective problem-solving is essential to achieve a fusion-powered future. We’re thrilled to have partners locally and internationally who are joining us as we create solutions to deliver the clean, safe and abundant power people need with the trust communities deserve.  Fusion Industry Association

    Climate Tech and Community | Board Director | Founder | Faculty @ Yale SOM

    Few people can credibly teach about fusion and AI in the same breath. My climate tech class at Yale School of Management was lucky to welcome R. David Edelman, who advised President Obama on technology policy and is Chief Policy and Global Affairs Officer at TAE (prominent fusion company), Board Director at the Fusion Industry Association, and a Fellow at both MIT and Brookings. Four takeaways from the class: 1) Fusion companies are racing towards commercialization by the early 2030s with a variety of technology bets. Recent developments in AI and additive manufacturing are solving the material science challenges in fusion technology at a faster pace than ever. 2) Private investment in fusion reached over $9B through 2024. Whereas many clean energy technologies are confronting obstacles in this anti-climate political environment, the fusion industry will continue to grow in this era given recent fusion regulatory decisions around the world, fusion's ability to counter China's dominance, and the fact that fusion doesn't threaten oil companies. 3) Fusion companies have turned to alternative commercial applications of their breakthrough technologies as a way to finance the billions they need to operate in the short-term. Examples include cancer treatment and battery power management. 4) One way that fusion companies can address the current grid interconnection constraints is licensing and delivering technology as a heat/electron source for existing power plants to integrate vs. developing and owning new power plants themselves. Though someone will have to internalize the costs of the interconnection queue, we cannot assume it will be entirely borne by fusion reactor developers. It was a joy to see the students revel in Prof. Edelman's knowledge sharing. Teaching so far has been a delight!

  • We recently had the pleasure of hosting the UK Atomic Energy Authority, the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, and the UK Department for Business and Trade at our California headquarters! TAE VPs of R&D, Mike Meekins and Rich Magee, led a tour of our facilities, including a closer look at our TAE Beams lab and our fifth-generation National Laboratory-scale fusion research machine. They were joined by HM Consul General Paul Rennie OBE; UKAEA Deputy CEO Tim Bestwick; UKAEA Head of Business Development Rajeev Deshprabhu; UK DESNZ Head of International Fusion Christopher Russo; UK DESNZ Fusion Energy Sector and Investment Lead James Jopling; UK DBT Senior Sector Manager Sabiha Padhani; and UK DBT Trade and Investment Officer Ari Wigder.   Like our UK colleagues, we believe fusion is key for a thriving low-carbon future – and building global collaboration is what will get us there 🤝
