Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) — the company behind former President Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform — has announced a $6 billion merger with TAE Technologies, a Google-backed company working to commercialize fusion energy. The combined company aims to become one of the world’s first publicly traded businesses dedicated to bringing fusion power to the grid.
Fusion energy, the same process that powers the sun, could offer virtually limitless, clean electricity with almost no long-term radioactive waste. With global electricity demand surging — especially due to the massive energy needs of AI data centers — investment in reliable, zero-carbon power sources like fusion is accelerating.
