Fusion energy—the process that powers the sun—represents the ultimate clean energy solution. Nuclear fusion is the process by which two light atomic nuclei combine to form a single heavier one while releasing massive amounts of energy. Fuel is a long-standing and widely discussed topic in the fusion energy science community. Among potential fusion fuels, proton-boron (p-11B) stands out as particularly promising. This advanced fuel cycle offers three key advantages: it uses abundant, low-cost fuel; produces minimal neutron radiation (making it inherently safer); and enables direct energy conversion for higher efficiency. These characteristics make p-11B fusion ideally suited for distributed power generation and other commercial applications.
Since 2018, the ENN team has developed a roadmap that outlines step-by-step progress from scientific exploration to technology development to the eventual commercialization of p-11B fusion. We are building a world-class research ecosystem featuring cutting-edge fusion facilities, specialized laboratories, and international collaborations. Our approach integrates the latest advances in fusion science, materials engineering, and power conversion technologies. Through strategic partnerships and continued innovation, ENN is accelerating the transition to a sustainable energy future powered by fusion.
