submission statement: General Fusion has officially entered a definitive business combination agreement with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (SVAC), a move set to make it the world’s first publicly traded „pure-play“ fusion company. Expected to close in mid-2026, the deal values the company at approximately $1 billion and provides a $335 million capital infusion to fully fund the **Lawson Machine 26 (LM26)**. Unlike the massive superconducting magnets used in Tokamaks or the high-powered lasers of inertial confinement, General Fusion utilizes a „diesel-engine“ inspired **Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF)** approach. This method uses high-pressure pneumatic pistons to collapse a liquid lithium liner around a magnetized plasma, mechanically compressing it to achieve the 100 million degree Celsius temperatures required for net energy production.
