Company profile

Zap Energy company profile

Zap Energy's fusion technology stabilizes plasma using sheared flows rather than magnetic fields. Driving electric current through the flow creates the magnetic field, which confines and compresses the plasma. The higher the current, the greater the pressure and density in the plasma. The flow-stabilized Z-pinch approach provides compelling fusion economics and requires less capital than conventional fusion technologies.
