Fusion Industry Programme Showcase

Fusion Industry Programme Showcase

Overview

Since 2022, the Fusion Industry Programme (FIP) has worked to accelerate the growth of the UK’s fusion energy sector. A key component of FIP is the Challenge Scheme, which engages the private sector to address the technical challenges of fusion energy development. The Scheme targets the entire fusion industry supply chain – from emerging SMEs and mid-level players to tier 2 suppliers, established tier 1 fusion suppliers, and companies in fusion-adjacent fields.

The first Programme, running up until March 2025, has facilitated huge growth in the fusion supply chain, funding 36 suppliers to face and overcome the challenges of fusion. On the 7th May, we are hosting a showcase event, inviting our FIP suppliers as well as UKAEA staff and other interested parties to join us at the UKAEA Culham Campus to share the achievements of FIP.
