Curious how fusion can power tomorrow?
Discover Belgium’s role in the path to fusion energy!
Open to students, educators, researchers and innovators
The Belgian Fusion Day is a joint event organised by the fusion research laboratories at the Royal Military Academy, the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre SCK-CEN, Universiteit Gent, KU Leuven, Université libre de Bruxelles and Université Catholique de Louvain. It aims to showcase to a broad audience the current state of Fusion Energy development and the involvement of Belgium in the pursuit of this abundant and carbon-free energy source of the future.
In this 4th edition of the event, we focus in particular on the landscape of private fusion companies, and the role Belgium’s high-tech industry can play in the development of future fusion power plants. The program includes:
- Invited speakers from ITER – the world’s largest fusion experiment – and private fusion companies
- Overview of expertise of the Belgian fusion labs
- Views on how Belgium’s high-tech industry can contribute to the development of fusion power plants
- Networking lunch and reception
We make the link with fusion-relevant technologies, including:
- Advanced cooling solutions
- Advanced computing and digital twins
- Generative design
- Data science, machine learning, AI
- Antenna design
- Additive manufacturing
- Thermomechanical analysis and structural integrity assessment
- Plasma Diagnostics & Control
- Heat- & neutron-resistant materials
- Vacuum technology and cryogenics
- Remote handling
