SOUTHLAKE, Texas, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American Fusion™ Inc. (OTC: AMFN) (“American Fusion™” or the “Company”), a company developing advanced fusion energy technologies, including its Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ platform, is pleased to announce that Dr. John Brandenburg, the Company’s Chief Technology Officer, has been invited by the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS) to present American Fusion™’s Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ technology at the International Conference on Plasma Science (ICOPS) 2026, scheduled to begin June 22, 2026.
Dr. Brandenburg’s presentation will provide conference participants with an overview of the Texatron™ platform, its development history, technical approach, compact architecture, and potential applications for distributed electrical power generation.
The International Conference on Plasma Science (ICOPS) is one of the world’s leading conferences dedicated to plasma science and plasma-based technologies. The conference brings together scientists, engineers, researchers, professors, students, government laboratories, defense organizations, and private industry participants from around the globe to discuss advances in plasma physics, fusion energy, pulsed power systems, particle beams, space plasmas, industrial plasma applications, and related technologies. For decades, ICOPS has served as a principal forum for presenting emerging research and technological developments within the plasma science community.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is the world’s largest technical professional organization dedicated to advancing technology and engineering. Within IEEE, the Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS) focuses on plasma science, fusion technologies, pulsed power systems, particle accelerators, radiation instrumentation, and related scientific disciplines. NPSS membership includes physicists, engineers, university researchers, national laboratory personnel, industry professionals, and students engaged in advancing plasma science and fusion-related technologies. As the sponsor of ICOPS, NPSS plays a significant role in fostering collaboration and technical exchange among researchers and organizations working at the forefront of plasma science and advanced energy systems.
American Fusion™ believes Dr. Brandenburg’s invitation to present the Texatron™ platform represents an important opportunity to share the Company’s technology with a highly qualified audience of scientists, engineers, researchers, government laboratories, defense organizations, and industry experts from around the world.
The Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ is being developed as a compact, scalable fusion energy platform designed to support distributed power generation applications. The Company believes the Texatron™ architecture may offer potential advantages in footprint, deployment flexibility, and scalability while supporting a broad range of future commercial applications.
“This is an exciting opportunity for American Fusion™ and for the Texatron™ program,” said Dr. John Brandenburg, Chief Technology Officer of American Fusion™. “ICOPS brings together some of the brightest minds in plasma science and fusion research from around the world. I look forward to presenting our work, discussing our approach to aneutronic fusion, and sharing the progress our team has achieved over the past several years. We believe the Texatron™ represents an important step toward practical, compact fusion power systems.”
“Having Dr. Brandenburg invited to present the Texatron™ technology before such a distinguished scientific audience is an important milestone for our Company,” said Michael Smith, Chief Legal Officer of American Fusion™. “The IEEE and NPSS communities represent some of the most respected professionals in plasma science, engineering, and advanced energy technologies. This conference provides an important forum to discuss our progress, technical approach, and future development plans with members of the broader scientific and engineering community.”
American Fusion™ continues to advance development of its Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ platform and remains focused on completing development milestones, expanding its intellectual property portfolio, advancing regulatory initiatives, and preparing for future testing activities associated with its next-generation systems.
