Another important step forward for American Fusion.
We continue to move forward, turning years of research, engineering and development into tangible progress.
An independent third-party technical review of our Texatron™ technology is now underway, with a final report expected later this month. An important step in evaluating the technology and supporting the next stages of development.
At the same time, we're moving closer to acquiring our North Texas Ranch Facility, intended to become a permanent home for research, engineering, assembly and testing.
Two significant milestones as we continue building the foundation for the future of American Fusion.

Brent Nelson Takes the Lead. A Stronger Focus. The Same Vision.
American Fusion enters its next phase with Brent Nelson as CEO, bringing leadership, technology development and commercial strategy closer together.
In this exclusive interview, we ask Brent Nelson three questions about his new role as CEO, American Fusion's ambitions and what lies ahead.
Why is now the right time for you to step into the CEO role?
- American Fusion’s next phase requires close coordination between our technology development, testing, financing and commercial strategy. Having been directly involved in building Kepler Fusion, I believe this is the right time for me to take responsibility for bringing those efforts together across the public company.
- My priority as Chairman and CEO is to give our team clear direction, the resources to execute and accountability for measurable progress. We have an ambitious vision, and my job is to translate that vision into achievable milestones.
What does this change mean for American Fusion and for the company's broader ambitions?
- Our ambition is to build American Fusion into a business capable of delivering dependable fusion power, with Texatron at the center of that effort.
- That requires more than developing the technology. We also need independent validation, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, a disciplined capital strategy and strong relationships with prospective customers. Our Power-as-a-Service model is central to that vision: ultimately, we want to deliver electricity through long-term customer relationships.
Looking ahead, what are you most excited about, and what should investors and people following American Fusion expect?
- What excites me most is the opportunity to bring our engineering work closer to practical applications. Data centers and other large electricity users give us a clear commercial focus as we advance development.
- People following American Fusion should expect us to communicate progress against concrete milestones: testing and technical review, facility development, engineering improvements, financing and prospective customer relationships. We will be clear about what has been demonstrated, what remains under evaluation and what comes next.
- There is substantial work ahead. I’m excited to lead that work, support our team and build shareholder confidence through results.

Big machines. Or smart pulses.
What if the future of fusion could be simpler?
While much of the industry is pursuing large-scale systems, American Fusion is exploring a different approach with Texatron.
Compact. Pulsed. Moveable.
The idea is simple. Build smaller, repeatable units that can be manufactured and scaled.
Because sometimes, the smartest solutions start with a simpler idea.

Visiting the Texatron site. Creating content. Meeting the people behind the technology.
Learning, listening, and getting a deeper understanding of the work being done here.
Real people. Real science. Real progress.
More to come.

By 2030, global electricity demand is expected to grow by 5,400 TWh per year.
AI, data centers, growing industries and an increasingly electrified world are changing the way we think about energy.
At American Fusion, we believe new challenges need new thinking. And that’s exactly why we’re here.
The goal isn’t fusion.
The goal is electricity.
On this account, we'll share perspectives on global trends, science, fusion research, and of course, reflect the developments at American Fusion as communicated through our official public disclosures.
@SueDoenam Real people. I’ve met them.
Real science. I’ve seen it.
Real progress. They’ve told me.
Three pretty universal ideas. And exactly what we’ll try to show more and more.
@SueDoenam Dr. John Brandenburg, PhD, leads the research team. Fabrice David, Associate Research Scientist, is the one in the picture.
The titles I wrote clearly indicate their respective roles and qualifications.

We share research we find interesting. News about our own work comes through official releases.
The point was simple: if you think you can do it better, why not come work with us? Hence the “Why, How, When” questions.
It was meant as an ironic response to the repeated criticism, both personal and directed at how we run our social media.
We should have worded it differently.
The photo was taken at our Texas testing facility. In the picture is Associate Research Scientist Fabrice David, with a Texatron in the foreground. It’s not the Texatron we’re currently testing.
We also recorded interviews with Fabrice and other members of the team at the facility, which we’ll be sharing soon.
It’s a mobile photo, enhanced for lighting and sharpness.
The background and parts of the walls have been digitally altered to conceal sensitive equipment and information, including the smaller Texatron we’re currently testing.
The people, the facility, the equipment and the engineering remain unchanged from the original photo taken on my phone.

@TLoch4 I understand that. But there is nothing I can do about that other than reporting what is told in public. I can post what I’m allowed to post, show what I’m allowed to show. Then news will come along the way.
Things are moving forward on several fronts. We’re upgrading the pulsed-power equipment for Texatron, working on four commercial proposals, and a scientific paper is currently under review.
Follow the journey. Real work. Real people. One step closer every day.

Over the next 12 months, American Fusion will sit down with New to The Street every month.
More interviews with the people behind Texatron. More context. More of the work.
The goal is not fusion itself. Electricity is.
Follow for progress.
