Zap Energy Inc. is developing and commercializing fusion energy technology using the
sheared-flow stabilized (SFS) Z-pinch. Fusion energy provides a nearly-limitless and carbon-free source of clean energy. The highly-motivated scientific and technical team is
conducting fast-paced, exciting, break-through work to push the SFS Z-pinch technology toward
scientific breakeven conditions: successful achievement of this goal will revolutionize energy
production. Zap Energy’s approach represents the most elegant fusion configuration, as it does not
require magnetic field coils nor auxiliary heating. We focus on rigorous experimental and
computational research methodologies. We are a well-funded spinout company from the
University of Washington, located in the Seattle WA area.
