Stellarator fusion power plant developer using superconducting magnet technology
Type One Energy is developing a stellarator-based fusion power plant, and its stack reads like a national lab with a hardware shop attached: ANSYS, COMSOL, OpenFOAM and HFSS for multiphysics simulation, Fortran and Julia for computational physics, and FPGA, VHDL, PetaLinux and RTOS for real-time diagnostics control. Hiring is overwhelmingly senior engineering, though overall velocity is slowing.
Type One Energy, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, is a privately held company working to commercialize stellarator fusion as a source of electricity. It works with energy producers as partners, following a capital-efficient development program called FusionDirect aimed at a working fusion power plant within roughly a decade. Its engineering approach combines advanced manufacturing, computational physics and high-field superconducting magnets. The company has 201–500 employees and hires in the United States and Canada.
Simulation tools ANSYS, COMSOL, OpenFOAM and HFSS; Siemens NX and Teamcenter for CAD/PLM; Python, C++, Fortran, Julia and MATLAB; FPGA, VHDL and PetaLinux for embedded control; GitLab, Jenkins and Jira.
