Fusion machines do require licensing. And no — NRC has not “referred fusion back to Texas.” The NRC explicitly decided in April 2023 that fusion is federally regulated under 10 CFR Part 30, with Agreement States allowed to administer compatible programs — but NRC retains authority, and Agreement States cannot override federal jurisdiction.
I just check again and there is no application submitted by Kepler Fusion, American Fusion or Renewal Fuels.
Do you need Nuclear Regulatory Commission or Dept of Energy licensing?
Yes, is the short answer.
Fusion regulation is evolving, but currently:
NRC does not have any of these regulations. They have referred us back to Texas, which is an Agreement State. We have made our applications in late February 2026 and expect acceptance within 60-90 days. We are designing toward: Much lower regulatory burden vs. fission reactors
No Federal NRC or Agreement State nuclear licenses exist for RNWF or Kepler Fusion Technologies.
This means they cannot legally build, test, or operate a fusion prototype anywhere in the U.S. They cannot legally possess tritium or other regulated isotopes. They cannot legally operate radiation-producing equipment.
They also don't even have a (Source Materials License). Let alone a Nuclear Operators License.
