It serves as a core institution for the development of fusion reactors under China’s "Three-Step" nuclear energy strategy and plays a critical role in supporting China’s participation in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) program. During the visit, Dr. Yu Yang, Chief Scientist of Tiangong International, was invited to deliver an academic presentation. The session was chaired by Professor Wang Jianbao, with over thirty experts in attendance, including Researcher Professor Liu Xiang, Deputy Director of the Material Research Department Professor Lian Youyun, and Professor Song Jiupeng from Xihua University. Dr. Yu Yang’s presentation, titled "Technological Development and Industrialization of Powder Metallurgy High-Alloy Steel," systematically introduced the technical features and advantages of Tiangong’s powder metallurgy industry. He also shared the company’s latest progress in the R&D of structural materials for nuclear fusion. Dr. Yu pointed out that, leveraging its independently developed powder metallurgy technology, Tiangong International has achieved significant breakthroughs in key indicators such as high purity, high homogeneity, and high toughness. These advancements can effectively address the performance limitations of traditional materials under the extreme operating conditions of nuclear fusion, breaking the long-term foreign monopoly on such materials and realizing import substitution.During the meeting, the R&D teams from both sides engaged in thorough discussions on the current state of technological development, R&D bottlenecks, and future requirements for nuclear fusion structural materials. A consensus was reached: Tiangong International’s advanced powder metallurgy technology will serve as a key solution to overcoming the "bottleneck" challenges in nuclear fusion materials. The two parties will strengthen joint technological research and continue to advance the domestication and complete import substitution of nuclear fusion structural materials. They will also establish a long-term cooperation mechanism to promote the high-quality development of China’s nuclear fusion industry.To further align R&D directions with practical needs, both sides have scheduled a follow-up visit by SWIP to Tiangong International in the near future, laying a solid foundation for future collaboration.

On October 1, the fusion energy sector witnessed back-to-back major developments. Domestically, the Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST) project in Hefei achieved a key milestone. The Dewar base, a critical component of the main reactor, was successfully fabricated and delivered, precisely installed in the BEST main hall, signaling a new phase in the construction of the project's main facilities. With core components and engineering installations accelerating, China is taking another step forward in the development of compact fusion experimental devices. Internationally, on the same day, the German government unveiled the "Germany on the Path to a Fusion Power Plant" action plan in Berlin, announcing a cumulative investment exceeding €2 billion by 2029, aiming to build the world's first fusion power plant. Dorothee Bär, Germany's Federal Minister of Research, Technology, and Space, stated, "Energy underpins competitiveness, value creation, and national sovereignty. Fusion holds the promise of delivering safe, reliable, environmentally friendly, and universally affordable clean energy for the future." Together, these announcements underscore that the global race for fusion energy is rapidly intensifying. As a key pathway in humanity's pursuit of ultimate clean energy, breakthroughs in fusion research and engineering are continuously reshaping the field. Against this backdrop, TIANGONG INTERNATIONAL's nuclear steel is entering an unprecedented growth phase. Building on its deep expertise in special steels and advanced materials, the company aligns closely with national strategic priorities, continuously advancing the R&D and industrialization of high-performance nuclear steel for fusion devices, supporting both major domestic scientific infrastructure and future international fusion projects.As the first Chinese enterprise to achieve mass production of powder-metallurgy tool and die steels, TIANGONG INTERNATIONAL has, since early 2025, leveraged its full-chain powder steel production advantages to actively collaborate with the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. After multiple rounds of technical exchanges, both parties confirmed that the "powder metallurgy + hot isostatic pressing (HIP)" process not only effectively avoids macrosegregation common in traditional casting but also greatly increases the flexibility of adding beneficial alloying elements and allows precise control over the distribution of nanoscale and submicron strengthening phases, thereby significantly enhancing the key properties of fusion reactor materials. This innovative approach is widely recognized as a major future direction for new structural materials and neutron shielding materials in fusion reactors.Currently, TIANGONG INTERNATIONAL has successfully mastered the core technologies of gas atomization, sieving and homogenization, and HIP for neutron shielding materials used in fusion devices, and has achieved small-batch trial production. Testing result shows that the strengthening phases are uniformly dispersed, with maximum particle size not exceeding 4 μm, fully meeting international standards. The trial pieces exhibit high strength, toughness, and elongation, marking a substantial step forward for TIANGONG in the R&D of critical materials for nuclear fusion.Next, TIANGONG INTERNATIONAL will continue to tackle thermal processing and near-net-shape forming technologies, while accelerating the development and industrialization of another class of critical fusion structural materials.The energy revolution has already begun. From Hefei to Berlin, the global pace of fusion energy development is accelerating in unison.
