nT-Tao is developing compact 20 MWe fusion systems designed to deliver firm, on-site power for infrastructure that cannot wait for the grid. A future where clean, affordable, and reliable energy is secure and universally accessible, empowering humans wherever they are. Our 20 MW Tao Energy Boxes are designed to deliver distributed, clean, 24/7 firm power, on or off the grid. Built for fast deployment and scalable local generation, they will help shorten time-to-power for energy-intensive infrastructure. As energy demand surges and time-to-power becomes a defining infrastructure constraint, the next generation of energy users is looking beyond centralized grids for faster, more scalable power. Target Applications & Markets: - National & Critical Infrastructure - Maritime, Shipping & Ports - Datacenters & AI Power - EV Quick Fleet Charging The Tao Energy Box is designed for low-risk deployment close to the user, accelerating time-to-revenue through improved operational control and reduced grid dependency. Key Advantages: - Faster deployment, faster revenue - Lower infrastructure and integration risk - Greater reliability and operational control - Standardized, repeatable manufacturing nT-Tao brings together a multidisciplinary team of physicists, engineers, and operators working on one of the most challenging engineering tasks of our time: commercializing compact, deployable fusion energy. We are expanding the team with people who want real ownership, deep technical responsibility, and the chance to help shape a new class of energy infrastructure. Leadership: - Oded Gour-Lavie (CEO, Co-Founder): A retired Rear Admiral from the Israeli Navy, former commander of the Israeli Submarine Fleet, and the Israeli Sea Division. Culminating as Head of Legal & Strategic Policy in the IDF Planning Directorate. Oded is an Electrical Engineer with a BSc Cum Laude from Technion Haifa, Harvard-HKS Wexner Fellow (2008) and MIT Sloan-VF (2019). - Doron Weinfeld (Chief Scientist, Co-Founder): An accomplished physicist with 30 years of extensive experience in startups. Doron is renowned for his technical creativity, out-of-the-box thinking, problem-solving ability, and theoretical expertise. Doron has been engaged in plasma physics research for over 30 years. - Boaz Weinfeld (CTO, Co-Founder): Boaz has an extensive background as an experimental physicist and system engineer across various fields, combined with a highly hands-on approach. He brings over 18 years of experience in managerial and technology development roles at Intel, both in Israel and California. Chairman of the Board: - Uzi Yemin: Ezra Uzi Yemin has served as Chairman of Delek US Holdings since 2012 and as its Chief Executive Officer from 2004 to 2022. He also served as Chairman and CEO of Delek Logistics GP, LLC, the general partner of Delek Logistics Partners, LP. Yemin brings more than two decades of leadership in large-scale energy infrastructure, capital-intensive operations, and regulated markets. - World Nuclear News: UK fusion sector poised for industrial scale-up. nT-Tao on a panel discussion (WNN, 6/25/26) - World’s first floating fusion reactor-powered vessel could become reality with new project (Interesting Engineering, 6/4/26) - Video presentation: The Fusion Report, Oded Gour-Lavie, nT-Tao, and Compact Fusion Power (The Fusion Report, 5/31/26) - The New Energy Architecture - By Oded Gour-Lavie.

The argument that matters now is about time. Something is changing in how the world gets electricity, and it's not the usual fight over fuels. One level below that argument, the architecture itself is shifting, toward generation built next to the customer who'll use it. A New Category: On-Site, Always-On Power..." - Growth Cannot Wait for the Grid (Jul 14): "For most of the past century, electricity decided where modern life could grow. Power plants were built first, transmission lines followed, and cities, factories, ports, and industrial zones expanded where the grid could reach them. Economic development did not ignore energy infrastructure. It planned around it. That arrangement is now under pressure..." - Fusion Is Not a Single Path Forward (May 4): "A recent analysis in Nature raises a familiar concern: that fusion may struggle to become economically competitive. Like many early assessments of emerging technologies, it is shaped by assumptions that may no longer hold. Two, in particular, stand out." - Why National Water Infrastructure Is Becoming Power-Limited (Apr 29): "National water infrastructure is inherently power-intensive. Treatment plants, desalination facilities, and pumping systems depend on continuous, reliable electricity to meet regulatory and public-health requirements. As grid reliability and long-term energy predictability become less certain, power availability is emerging as a defining constraint on water system resilience and expansion."
