30th Symposium on Fusion Engineering

UK Atomic Energy Authority

University of Oxford

9 - 13 July, 2023

The IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE) is a biennial conference with a focus on fusion excellence. SOFE2023 was held in Oxford and it has only been the second time that it has taken place outside of the US, the first time it has been in Europe. The event was hosted by the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) and brought the global fusion community together. Terra Praxis' Founding Partner and Co-CEO, Kirsty Gogan, gave a talk on "Developing a fast, low-cost, and repeatable system to decarbonize the global coal fleet with fission and fusion by 2050".

Kirsty participated on the session titled: "Next Step Devices, DEMOs, Power Plants and Socio-Economic studies." She presented on the work Terra Praxis and its partner organizations are doing to decarbonize the coal fleet by 2050.

Other topics on this session included: ‍
