Overview
Avalanche Energy is developing a modular 100 kWe to 5 MWe range of compact fusion machines, based on the Orbitron plasma confinement scheme for hard-to-decarbonize applications. Its compact size and modularity are game changers for dual-use, mobile and distributed power applications across air, land, sea, and space. Some potential applications include islanded micro-grids in austere/ remote environments, electric vehicle battery recharging, and spacecraft power and propulsion.
Technology
The company reports a Magnetic-electrostatic confinement approach, with DT fuel.
Funding
Total declared funding: 104200000 USD, per the company-reported FIA 2026 survey.
