UKAEA's Fusion Futures programme, announced in October 2023, is designed to develop the fusion ecosystem. It does this through the delivery of a wide range of targeted interventions, spanning industry capability growth, skills development, first of a kind facilities and many more.
The Fusion Futures 24/25 End of Year Report showcases the innovative and exciting work the programme has delivered with the fusion sector and beyond over the past year.
From investing over £60 million in partners across the fusion ecosystem to engaging nearly 800 young people in the programme’s FOSTER skills drive, alongside the creation of international consortia to conduct innovative tritium breeding experiments and international computing collaborations delivered with world leading companies that leverage access to infrastructure worth billions of pounds, the programme has enabled a series of key interventions within both the fusion industry and wider UK economy.
The first year of the programme aims to steer the UK on a course to commercialising fusion energy, with significant short-term benefits captured along the way. Working with over 300 partners across industry, academia and the wider fusion ecosystem, UKAEA is proud to present the scale of activities and subsequent impacts achieved and looks forward to reporting on future successes as the programme develops further.
