The UK Atomic Energy Authority is a non-departmental government body carrying out research into the potential of nuclear fusion as a future source of energy. Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the Sun, can play a big part in our carbon-free energy future. Culham is one of the world's leading fusion research laboratories. Our scientists and engineers are working with partners around the globe to develop fusion as a new source of cleaner energy for tomorrow's power stations.
Research into fusion power presents UK industry with many business opportunities. In addition to winning contracts for products and services, simply meeting the technical and quality demands of fusion projects can create long-term competitive advantages for your company. Fusion research in the UK is conducted by CCFE at Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire. The centre is home to the UK's fusion research including the MAST (Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak) experiment as well as JET (the Joint European Torus), currently the world's largest fusion device. CCFE has close links with other European and international fusion laboratories and the International Tokamak Experimental Reactor (ITER) under construction at Cadarache, France. As part of the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA), RACE is conducting R&D and commercial activities in the field of Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS).
