technology but building on decades of scientific research and experience.

Tokamak Energy focused on spherical tokamaks, pioneered at Culham because these compact devices can achieve a much higher plasma pressure for a given magnetic field than conventional tokamaks. They deploying high-temperature superconducting magnets to control the plasma within its devices. These allow high magnetic fields to be created in the confined dimensions of compact tokamaks, further improving the efficiency of the device.

Tokamak Energy was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.
