China’s Energy Singularity Makes Fusion Energy Breakthrough
Energy Singularity announced that the Chinese nuclear fusion energy startup has made a significant breakthrough in the field of high-temperature superconducting magnets and set a magnetic field record in the process.
The Shanghai-based company said today that its state-of-the-art large-bore high-field magnet, named Jingtian, has successfully completed its first experiment, generating an unprecedented 21.7 tesla magnetic field. That set a new record for large-bore D-shaped HTS magnets.
The previous record of 20.1 tesla, set in 2021, was achieved by the SPARC TFMC magnet jointly developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and US fusion energy company Commonwealth Fusion Systems.
