nT-Tao is developing a 20 MWe compact fusion energy system, the Tao Energy Box, based on a pulsed, high-density magnetic confinement generator, the Tao Core. By combining mature plasma physics, stellarator confinement topology, and advanced pulsed power electronics, the Tao Core enables smaller on-site power units designed for mass manufacturing and deployment close to demand. The Tao Core is designed for high magnetic fields (8–10 Tesla) within a compact stellarator geometry, while rotating electromagnetic fields reduce plasma instabilities during the heating-cycle pulses. This enables stable plasma confinement while reducing overall system size and complexity.
