EUROfusion - RealiSing Fusion Energy

About EUROfusion

On 9 October 2014, fusion research bodies from European Union member states and Switzerland signed an agreement to cement European collaboration on fusion research and EUROfusion, the European Consortium for the Development of Fusion Energy, was born. Presently EUROfusion supports and funds fusion research activities on behalf of the European Commission’s Euratom programme within 26 EU member states, while Switzerland, Norway and the United Kingdom participate in the activities with their national fusion budgets.

Mission

EUROfusion's mission is to pave the way for fusion power reactors. To do so, the consortium funds the research at 28 of its members (in 26 EU member states) on the basis of the "European Roadmap to the Realisation of Fusion Energy" as a joint programme within Euratom Horizon Europe.

Vision

Our vision is a world in which fusion power plants feed the grid with CO2-free fusion power and complement other sources of energy production.

Budget

From 2021 to 2025 EUROfusion is supported by €549.4 million from EURATOM with about €450 million matching funding from member states.
