Focused Energy Raised $240M in Their Largest Series A Deal to Date
Adam Harrie — May 27, 2026Focused Energy raised $240 million in a Series A, the largest fully secured Series A in the global fusion industry, backed by RWE, SPRIND, the European Innovation Council Fund and Prime Movers Lab. The development of a commercial laser fusion energy reactor will be based at a former RWE power plant site in Biblis, Hesse, where existing nuclear infrastructure and RWE’s decommissioning expertise can help accelerate fusion system development and reduce costs.
Founded in 2021 as a spin-off from Technical University Darmstadt, Focused Energy develops laser-based fusion technology designed to deliver clean, safe and virtually inexhaustible power for industrial use.
Focused Energy shows how repurposing decommissioned nuclear infrastructure for next-generation fusion development can shorten the timeline from research to industrial-scale clean energy production.
