Fusion Industry Association

Regulatory Engagement: Fusion power plants will be subject to regulation by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and State regulators when built. How those regulations are designed and implemented will have a material impact on the costs and timescales for building power plants and driving investment. Likewise, ensuring that fusion experiments and power plants pose the minimum risk to the public is of paramount importance to the industry. Therefore, a key priority of the FIA is to directly engage with regulators in a transparent manner as they determine appropriate, risk-informed regulation for the industry.

External Communications: Ensuring that stakeholders and policymakers know about the importance of clean, safe, affordable, and secure fusion energy to the future energy system is a key part of the FIA's exempt mission. Through traditional media, social media, and direct engagement, the FIA is educating key stakeholders in the private, public, and philanthropic sectors about the importance of tomorrow's fusion power economy.
