Recently, the 18th National Conference on Superconductivity (NCSC2025) was held in Shanghai. As one of the largest and most influential academic events in the field of superconductivity in China, this conference brings together top experts and scholars in China to discuss the frontier progress and future development direction of superconducting technology. As the only commercial fusion enterprise invited to report at the conference, Startorus Fusion demonstrated its recent innovative achievements in high temperature superconducting magnets and fusion apparatus, and also marked a key breakthrough in its original technical route from laboratory to engineering landing.
In the report of the conference, the head of the Magnet Department of Startorus Fusion introduced in detail the overall design and operation principle of Startorus 1, the next generation of high temperature superconducting spherical Tokamak apparatus under construction. The original “repetitive reconnection technology” of Startorus Fusion can significantly improve the efficiency of plasma confinement, break through the limitations of traditional Tokamak engineering, effectively reduce the complexity and construction cost of the apparatus, and open up a new path for the commercialization of compact fusion energy.

In addition, the research and development progress and experimental test results of plasma confinement D-coil and plasma driving central solenoid coil made of high temperature superconducting tape were also shared. At present, the team of Startorus Fusion has mastered the preparation process of large high temperature superconducting magnet coils, and for the first time demonstrated the preparation scene of large high temperature superconducting magnet coils to the public at the conference.
In the field of high temperature superconducting magnet support technology, Startorus Fusion has also achieved fruitful results. The 10 kA and 3.6 kA high-current low-resistance joint technology independently developed by the team has effectively overcome the bottleneck problem of current transmission in the superconducting magnet system. The extreme physical field integrated data detection system realizes real-time monitoring and analysis of multi-physical field parameters in complex environments such as low temperature and strong magnetic field, and provides a solid data guarantee for the safe operation of the apparatus. The accumulation of these technological achievements fully reflects the systematic strategic layout of Startorus Fusion from basic research to engineering application.
Extreme Physics Comprehensive Tester Independently Developed by Startorus Fusion
As a pioneer in the field of commercial fusion energy in China, Startorus Fusion is committed to promoting the deep integration of high-temperature superconducting technology and magnetic confinement fusion apparatus. The demonstration of the results at NCSC2025 strongly demonstrates the company’s strong technical strength in the research and development of superconducting magnets and the design of fusion apparatus. In the future, Startorus Fusion will continue to deepen technological research, accelerate the process of commercial exploration of fusion energy to contribute Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions to the development of global clean energy.
