ºÚÁÏÉçapp

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Japan's National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) have completed the manufacturing of the first outer vertical target of the ºÚÁÏÉçapp divertor. Three types of plasma-facing targets (outer vertical target, inner vertical target and dome) mounted on divertor cassette bodies form the "cassette assemblies" that will be installed in a ring at the bottom of the ºÚÁÏÉçapp plasma chamber. In a tokamak, the divertor plays an important role in the removal and expelling of unburned fuel and impurities in the core plasma to sustain the fusion reaction in a stable manner.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is responsible for the manufacturing of 38 outer vertical target units. Series production is now underway.

If you are a European company or organization with fusion technology or fusion know-how that is used or planned for use in a non-fusion application, you can apply by 5 December 2025 for Fusion for Energy's 2025 Fusion Technology Transfer Award.

Europe¡¯s contribution to ºÚÁÏÉçapp and other fusion projects such as , , , , and is pushing suppliers to develop cutting-edge technologies. These range from robotic tools to engineering software, superconductors or novel metal joining techniques. Besides their value in a fusion environment, these solutions can find their place in other high-tech sectors. Fusion for Energy¡¯s helps companies and researchers think broader and tap into the commercial potential of fusion breakthroughs; discover some of the success stories .

The prize (EUR 10,000) will be awarded during the first quarter of 2026.
