Type One Energy

About

Type One Energy is a fusion energy startup founded in 2019, commercializing stellarator magnetic confinement technology. The company operates as a global fusion technology provider and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for commercial fusion power plants, a field that sits at the intersection of advanced physics and large-scale power plant engineering.

The company is partnering with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to develop Infinity Two, slated to be the world's first grid-scale commercial fusion power plant. This facility is planned for TVA's Bull Run Energy Complex in East Tennessee, with a target operational date in the mid-2030s. The project represents a significant step toward integrating fusion power into existing utility infrastructure.

Type One Energy's culture is described as being rooted in curiosity, collaboration, and respect. The company brings together people from various global locations and across multiple scientific and engineering disciplines to work on its technical domains, which include fusion energy development and power plant engineering.
