Tokamak Energy, founded in 2009, is focused on developing affordable and competitive fusion energy using their two world-leading technologies: compact spherical tokamaks and High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnets.

The spherical tokamak, a more efficient alternative to the traditional doughnut-shaped plasma, offers the smallest and most cost-effective solution for fusion energy.

  • Update 2024-31-12 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Resolution Criteria Update:

    • The resolution will be determined based on the presence of an official press release confirming that Tokamak Energy's Demo4 superconducting magnet system has been assembled and completed testing by 12/31/2024. If no such press release is found by the deadline, the resolution will be 'No'.

"High temperature #superconducting (HTS) #magnets are a game changer for #fusion. As we gear up for operations with our flagship Demo4 fusion #magnet system next year, our latest #FusionPioneer video features Demo4 Chief Engineer, Graham Dunbar. Graham provides a progress update"

Per video still fitting it up with instrumentation.

"We’re making great progress assembling more than 15,000 components into our flagship high temperature #superconducting (HTS) #fusion magnet system. Known as Demo4
...
"Next, we’ll be adding the poloidal field (PF) coils and continuing to develop the various supporting subsystems, in advance of full system commissioning early next year."

Both these point to next year i.e. 2025.

Not sure if that should be viewed as sufficient for a no resolution. @mods creator inactive?
