Simulations of Our Technology
Recent Simulations
Electric Fusion Systems’ simulations and theoretical modeling efforts are centered around leveraging the expertise of external specialists in fusion and fusion simulations. Our core fusion science is underpinned by robust, vetted, and calibrated software codes and simulations that have been extensively validated over decades by these external experts. This is complemented by our internal experimental data, which clearly demonstrate fusion events through spectrographic evidence and neutron observations.
Key Aspects of Our Fusion Process:
Fusion Fuel Condensate:
- Our proprietary process creates a Quantum Plasma State (QPS) bulk liquid fusion fuel condensate, using a unique combination of lithium, ammonia, and noble gases. This fuel forms the foundation for our fusion reactions.
Pulsed Electrical Stimulation:
- Electrical stimulation is applied through the QPS media, triggering Coulomb explosions. These explosions facilitate fusion reactions by overcoming the Coulomb barrier, causing the nuclei to merge.
Energy Extraction:
- The resulting fusion reactions exert electromagnetic pressure on the inductive coil windings, inducing a current. This current is then rectified into usable electricity, providing a direct and efficient energy conversion mechanism.
Scientific Validation:
Robust Simulations:
- Our simulations employ well-established software and methodologies, ensuring accuracy and reliability. These tools have been rigorously tested and validated by experts in the field.
Empirical Evidence:
- Internal experiments provide clear evidence of fusion events, supported by spectrographic data and neutron detection. This empirical validation reinforces the credibility of our theoretical models and simulations.
Novel Fusion Fuel:
- While our proprietary fusion fuel is a novel innovation, all other aspects of our process are well-documented and supported in the scientific literature. This unique fuel enhances the efficiency and feasibility of our fusion technology.

The difficulty of a fusion reaction is characterized by the ignition barrier, the energy required for the nuclei to overcome their mutual Coulomb repulsion and fuse to release energy. It is lowering of this Coulomb barrier that enables our solvated electron liquid metal fuel to improve fusion probabilities. This is a key to the EFS fusion approach and is scientifically supported by 2012 paper that concludes that there is no debate that “Li + proton reactions are greatly enhanced when the reactions occur in a metal environment.” The idea of electron Debye screening as a mechanism to enhance fusion and lower the Coulomb barrier is not new, but it is novel in the EFS fusion fuel and reactor design.
The classical Lawson criterion for proton-lithium fusion is substantially higher (more challenging) than that for deuterium-tritium (D-T) because the fusion cross section is lower and peaks at higher ion energies. However, the Electron degeneracy in a dense mixture of the EFS fuel is a method for increasing fusion probabilities at lower ignition temperature, which makes reactor design much easier. This shielding the nuclear Coulomb barrier in EFS’s metalized fuel mixture coupled with large up-scattering efficiency lowers the effective Lawson criteria.
