General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) achieved electron temperatures above 1 keV in its LM26 demonstration machine, completing its first technical milestone. Thomson scattering measurements made with the UK Atomic Energy Authority recorded approximately 1.1 keV just before peak compression. A separate extreme-ultraviolet diagnostic measured approximately 1.2 keV during peak compression. Inferred ion temperatures reached approximately 0.46 keV, up to twice the starting temperature.
Upgrades are underway toward the next target of 10 keV, followed by the Lawson criterion: the temperature, density and energy-confinement combination required for net fusion energy in plasma. General Fusion is preparing a commercial systems program and targets first-of-a-kind plant operation around 2035. Two technical papers are being submitted for peer review.
General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) achieved its first LM26 technical milestone, measuring plasma electron heating above 1 keV using Magnetized Target Fusion. The demonstration recorded 1.1 keV, or 12.6 million degrees Celsius, just before peak compression. Magnetized Target Fusion heats magnetically confined plasma by compression; LM26 uses a solid metal wall to compress it over milliseconds. UK Atomic Energy Authority specialists helped develop the laser-based Thomson scattering system used to measure the temperature.
A technical paper co-authored with UKAEA is being posted on General Fusion’s website and submitted for peer review. Machine upgrades are underway to support higher compression ratios ahead of the company’s targeted 10 keV milestone. General Fusion then plans to pursue the Lawson criterion—the temperature, density and confinement time needed for net fusion energy in plasma—and aims to begin operating a first-of-a-kind plant around 2035.
General Fusion Group (GFUZ) will participate in several investor conferences during September and October 2026.
Events include the TD Nuclear and Uranium Conference in London on September 8, the HC Wainwright Annual Global Investment Conference in New York on September 15, the virtual Keybanc Annual Renewables Symposium on September 17, and the virtual TD Nuclear Roundtable on October 8. Attendance is by invitation for clients of each hosting firm, and investors must contact their sales representative to register and arrange one-on-one or group meetings.
General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) issued its first public business update following its July 2026 Nasdaq listing, becoming what it describes as the first publicly listed fusion company. After completing its business combination with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. III, the company entered public markets with approximately US$150 million in cash, which it expects will fund its Lawson Machine 26 (“LM26”) program through several technical milestones to the end of 2028.
General Fusion reported achieving plasma heating of about 0.72 keV (8.4 million °C) using a lithium liner, a step toward its 1 keV, then 10 keV and Lawson criterion targets. Commercially, it announced a milestone-based framework agreement with Renexia S.p.A. for potential deployment in Italy and a collaboration with General Atomics Energy Group to advance plasma diagnostics for temperatures above 10 keV in the next LM26 phase. The company reiterated its staged roadmap and a goal of enabling a first-of-a-kind fusion plant by approximately 2035, and it scheduled a webcast for investors with a 12‑month replay.
General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) announced it will host a business update conference call at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, August 18, 2026. A live webcast and a 12‑month replay will be available on the Events & Presentations page of General Fusion’s investor relations website.
Participants can also register online to receive phone dial‑in details and a unique PIN to ask questions during the Q&A session.
General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) announced that members of its leadership team will participate in Canaccord Genuity’s 46th Annual Growth Conference in Boston. Chief Strategy Officer Megan Wilson will join a fireside chat on August 11 at 12:30 p.m. ET, available via webcast registration at event.summitcast.com.
A replay of the session will be posted on the Events & Presentations page of General Fusion’s investor relations website. Investors can request one-on-one meetings with General Fusion during the conference through their Canaccord Genuity representative or by emailing investors@generalfusion.com.
General Fusion (NASDAQ: GFUZ) will ring the Nasdaq Opening Bell on July 17, 2026, to celebrate the start of trading as what the company describes as the first publicly listed fusion energy company. CEO Greg Twinney highlighted the firm’s 20-year effort to commercialize fusion energy and the strategic move to public markets.
General Fusion’s magnetized target fusion (MTF) technology is designed to avoid superconducting magnets and high-powered lasers, using existing materials for durable machines. In early 2025, the company designed, built, and began operating its LM26 demonstration machine, which targets plasma heating milestones up to 10 keV and ultimately the Lawson criterion.
General Fusion (Nasdaq: GFUZ) began trading on Nasdaq on July 13, 2026, following its business combination with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. III. The company enters public markets with approximately US$150 million in cash to fund its Lawson program through key Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF) milestones targeted for 2028.
General Fusion highlights progress on its LM26 demonstration machine in Vancouver, reporting plasma electron temperatures of about 0.72 keV (8.4 million °C) toward a 1 keV goal. The company cites global recognition via TIME’s 2026 Top GreenTech ranking, board reinforcements, and a framework agreement with Renexia for potential commercial deployment in Italy.
General Fusion Group (Nasdaq: GFUZ) has completed its previously announced business combination with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. III, a Nasdaq-listed SPAC, and will begin trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “GFUZ” (shares) and “GFUZW” (warrants) on July 13, 2026.
According to General Fusion, the company is entering public markets with approximately US$150 million in cash, including net proceeds from a private placement and SPAC trust capital. The funds are expected to support its Lawson program through several key technical milestones targeted for completion in 2028, with the goal of demonstrating and de-risking its Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF) technology at commercially relevant scale.
The company operates Lawson Machine 26 (LM26), described as the first MTF demonstration machine at a commercially relevant scale. LM26 compresses plasma with a lithium liner at roughly 50% commercial-scale diameter and is intended to reach plasma temperatures of 1 keV and 10 keV on the path toward meeting the Lawson criterion for net fusion energy.
Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. III (NASDAQ: SVAC) shareholders approved its business combination with General Fusion, a fusion energy company, on July 6, 2026. General Fusion securityholders also approved the deal.
The combined company is expected to close around July 10, 2026 and later trade on Nasdaq as GFUZ and GFUZW, subject to regulatory and listing approvals.
