Realta Fusion and Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) are collaborating to bring fusion power to Wisconsin. As reported by Wisconsin Public Radio and other news outlets, as well as MGE, the Madison-headquartered startup company and utility are exploring the development, siting, permitting, and financing of a 200-MWe-minimum fusion facility that would be capable of generating enough electricity for approximately 150,000 homes.
