Fusion is entering the delivery era, with an increasing focus on key technologies that will be needed to address the challenges of the first-generation fusion power stations.
UKAEA’s experience and capabilities developed from decades of research, development and operation of large-scale experimental fusion facilities places it in an excellent position to pioneer the commercialisation of sustainable fusion energy.
H3AT (Hydrogen-3 Advanced Technology) is a world-first tritium research centre at UKAEA. It will study how to process, store and recycle tritium, one of the fuels that will supply fusion power stations.
The science and technologies associated with the fuel cycle for the first-generation fusion power plants is a primary area of research for fusion programmes.
The H3AT vision is to position UKAEA as a global fusion leader for delivering world-class tritium solutions and associated R+D technologies. The realisation of this vision will establish the UK as the global commercial hub for fusion technology and innovation.
What we’re looking for:
We are looking for individuals who have project management and professional experience and who have a passion for making a difference to the world. No prior fusion experience is necessary, just someone with relevant skills for the roles and who have an interest in managing projects within the fusion industry.
