Climate TechSeries A

Pacific Fusion was founded in 2023 with the mission to power the world with abundant, affordable, clean energy. We are rapidly designing and building a pulsed magnetic fusion system to achieve net facility gain (more fusion energy output than stored energy input). In parallel, we are developing the key components required to build affordable fusion systems.

Pacific Fusion presents a high-risk, high-reward equity opportunity in the nascent but rapidly evolving nuclear fusion sector.

Last updated: March 10, 2026

Bull (30%)+300%

Pacific Fusion achieves significant technical breakthroughs ahead of schedule, demonstrating net facility gain by 2028 and securing a major strategic partnership or pre-purchase agreement from a tech giant. This validates its unique pulsed magnetic inertial fusion approach, attracting a Series B round at an $8.0B valuation, leading to substantial returns for common stock holders.

Base (35%)+100%

The company makes steady progress towards its 2030 net facility gain target, successfully completing key technical milestones and commencing construction of its New Mexico campus. While facing intense competition and high capital needs, it secures additional funding at a $4.0B valuation, allowing common stock holders to see a meaningful, albeit diluted, return above the liquidation preference.

Bear (35%)-80%

Technical challenges or regulatory hurdles delay progress, or a competitor achieves a significant breakthrough first. The high capital intensity necessitates a down round or a less favorable exit at a valuation of $400M or less. Given the $900M in liquidation preferences, common stock holders would receive little to no return.

  • 2

    “The nuclear fusion market is highly competitive with several well-funded players pursuing different technological approaches. How does Pacific Fusion's pulsed magnetic inertial fusion system differentiate itself, and what is the strategy to maintain its competitive moat against companies like Commonwealth Fusion Systems and Helion Energy, especially as they approach commercialization?”

  • 3

    “With a $900M Series A and a very high capital intensity, what is the company's long-term funding strategy, and how does it plan to manage future dilution for employees, particularly given the significant liquidation preferences for current investors?”
