The Fusion Technology and Engineering Division, headed by Dr. Joseph Minervini, conducts research on conventional and superconducting magnets for fusion devices and other large-scale power and energy systems. The Division’s major emphasis is on support of US and international (ITER) Fusion Programs, where the PSFC has the leadership responsibility for the Magnets Enabling Technology program.
