Jorrit Lion is co-founder and Chief Scientist of Proxima Fusion. At Proxima Fusion, he is responsible for the design of the demonstrator device Alpha, which is intended to start operations in the early 2030s and demonstrate net energy in a stellarator. Previously, as a doctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, he studied how a stellarator based on the Wendelstein 7-X concept would need to be designed for commercial power production. He is known at Proxima Fusion for a vision that formed the basis of the company’s approach to stellarator optimization across physics, engineering, and economics.
