State legislation: Bipartisan support growing for nuclear energy in Wisconsin
Lawmakers are crossing the aisle to back proposals to expand nuclear power and nuclear research in the Badger State, especially as energy-hungry data center projects advance in Wisconsin and projections for energy demand soar.
The state has a goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 but will also need to generate more power to support data center plans, such as those being discussed in Port Washington and Beaver Dam, according to media reports.
Tokamak Energy is pursuing the global deployment of commercial fusion through the combined development of spherical tokamaks with high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets. Founded in 2009, the company has an unrivalled track record designing and operating spherical tokamaks and is a world leader in HTS technology design, numerical modelling, and prototyping.
