 UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) carries out fusion energy research on behalf of the UK Government. We believe fusion will be part of the world’s future energy mix, and achieving this involves working at the forefront of science, engineering, and technology. 

We oversee the UK’s fusion programme, headed by the MAST Upgrade (Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak) experiment. We also host the world’s largest fusion research facility, JET (Joint European Torus), operated for scientists from around Europe. 

 First Light Fusion is a UK-based deep technology business researching energy generation through inertial confinement fusion. As the world’s leading inertial fusion company, First Light pushes the boundaries of science and theoretical modelling by taking a new approach to fusion, known as projectile fusion. 

The company was founded as a spin-out from the University of Oxford, raising seed capital

from IP Group plc, Parkwalk Advisors Ltd, and private investors. Based in Oxford, First Light Fusion was founded in June 2011 by Professor Yiannis Ventikos, the head of the Mechanical Engineering Department at University College, London, and Dr Nicholas Hawker, formerly an engineering lecturer at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford. 

Over the last decade and more, First Light has established itself as one of the best-known fusion companies in the UK and the world. Funded privately by a range of investors including VCs, angel investors and institutions, First Light has secured £77 million in funding to date. Over that time, the business has grown from a research-focused university project to a fully-fledged company that has not only developed a new approach to fusion energy, but also a sustainable business model based on the technology.
