• Introduce new, and upgrade existing, capabilities in our laboratories to advance fusion technology readiness
• Develop our people and culture, targeting growth mindset
There are now seven technical groups within Fusion Technology, with the introduction of a new Magnet Technology group in 2025. The group has been established to support the development of superconducting magnet capability across UKAEA and fusion programmes. Each group submitted a range of highlights, covering a wide range of topics, fusion challenges and project partnerships. The research impact of the Division’s work has provided meaningful contributions to programmes across UKAEA, UKFE and internationally; and has supported the research within the private fusion sector and growing fusion supply chain.
The UKAEA's Fusion Technology Division’s latest Year in Review has been published. The document is a comprehensive round-up of the Division’s research highlights in the 2025-26 financial year, capturing 12 months of significant progress across the Division's activities. The Review covers work across materials testing, manufacturing qualification, neutronics research and supply chain development. This year, the Review has categorised its highlights within the Division’s five strategic objectives:
• Deliver and disseminate high-impact research in fusion technology development
• Enhance our operations to maximise research impact
• Exploit our research through business development
• Introduce new, and upgrade existing, capabilities in our laboratories to advance fusion technology readiness
• Develop our people and culture, targeting growth mindset
