About

Helion is a fusion energy company developing the world's first commercial fusion power plant to deliver clean, reliable electricity to the grid. Their technology uses magnets to accelerate and merge particles, releasing energy that is converted into usable electricity. Fusion fuel is sourced from water and produced through reactions, offering a carbon-free energy source without long-lived radioactive waste.

Problem

The world needs a clean, abundant, and reliable source of electricity that doesn't rely on fossil fuels or produce long-lived radioactive waste.
