Tokamak Energy awarded green transformation award by Tokyo

Established six years ago, the scheme was set up to attract and support companies with high technological capabilities pioneering GX-related solutions.

Tokamak Energy incorporated a subsidiary company in Japan earlier this year and was recognised for its advances in fusion energy and high temperature superconductors (HTS).

It is one of seven new awardees – from 59 entrants in 20 countries – selected as part of a drive to create innovation through collaboration and expand Tokyo’s sustainability capabilities.

In a statement, Ross Morgan, Tokamak energy director of strategic partnerships, said: “Tokyo is the perfect city for developing our fusion energy and high temperature superconducting technology, and we look forward to exploring the range of exciting opportunities being part of this new collaboration will bring on our mission towards a future of clean, limitless energy.”

Tokamak Energy said it has built a network of government, commercial, scientific and academic partners in Japan in recent years, including with strategic investor Furukawa Electric, the University of Tokyo, Kyoto Fusioneering and Sumitomo Corporation.
