We have several patent applications that just went public! An ultra-dense cable interconnector to maximize electrical current density, a pump for ultra-low pressures in high-temperature vacuum chambers, and a method for extracting electricity directly from axially-expanding fusion plasmas. • Multi-dimensional, Flux-excluding, Low inductance Electrical Interconnect • Hybrid Gettering Diffusion Pump • Apparatus and Methods for Generating a Pulsating, High-Strength Magnetic Field Our team really is brilliant. We have team members that identify how to do things better so we can scale faster, and they make it happen. These patents are just one example of that type of work and thinking.

Love this. Helion’s approach is a wonderful example of the way a new energy technology built to be an electric resource enters the commercial market. Fusion’s pre-commercial differences can be confusing, especially if comparing companies. The differences in commercialization approaches between fusion technologies may speak to the diversity of their academic and investment antecedents. Fusion is nearly here and we welcome it climate disruption!

So Star Trek sounding. Congratulations on securing the patents 🙂 Not seriously: Do any of you play the party game, Space Team? If not, explore it to enjoy scifi sounding future technology terms which each of you must read out to the other, vocally, in order to proceed through the game. Team building and inspiring future Tech stuff.

Really impressed with the level of innovation at Helion outside of just fusion and plasma.
It's so cool to have a neighbor like Helion! I work at Boeing and on occasion I drive down to the restaurants down on Hardeson, or visit a supplier around there, and I see Helion's new main plant. Keep on innovating!

It's stunning that a getter could work in an environment full of diffusion pump fluid. Nice!

2moMaybe it would be better if the best fusion startups would pool their competences and patents, to crack the main problem instead of creating artifical barriers for innovation with many patents.
