Step Fusion

STEP Fusion is a government-funded industry partnership programme, designed to scale a consistent fusion energy supply. Sponsored by the UK Department for Energy and Net Zero, it’s part of the UK Government’s Major Projects Portfolio — and the UK’s flagship fusion programme.

Based at a site in West Burton, STEP Fusion was established by the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) — but will ultimately be delivered by the wholly owned subsidiary, UK Industrial Fusion Solutions Ltd (UKIFS).
