Our Mission: Accelerating Power Plant Design for a Sustainable Future
At nTtau Digital, our mission is to accelerate the design of fusion power plants through automation and AI. By transforming how power plants are designed and costed, we help the world reach clean, reliable, and sustainable energy sooner.
Our Story
Founded in 2023, nTtau Digital was created with a clear purpose: to remove friction from one of the toughest engineering challenges in the world -designing power plants and bringing them to fruition in the real world.
We began by tackling designs at the pre-conceptual stage and are expanding to conceptual and engineering-level designs as we progress. Our technology uses multi-objective optimisation (MOO) and advanced simulation workflows to uncover insights that are impossible to see with traditional methods.
​
As part of a consortium with the University of Manchester and the University of Oxford, we’re leading the field, defining how digital design can accelerate the future of clean energy.
​
Our long-term vision is simple but ambitious: to cut the design time for fusion power plants from decades to a fraction of that, helping projects reach milestones faster, secure investment sooner, and bring sustainable power to the grid with confidence.
Our Team
Our team is composed of seasoned experts in AI, nuclear fusion, and software development, dedicated to driving transformative impact in the energy sector. Leading our charge is Simon Woodruff, a veteran in nuclear fusion with over 25 years of experience. Simon has contributed significantly to major fusion research projects and initiatives, including ITER, General Fusion, and the US Department of Energy's Innovative Confinement Concepts (ICC) program​.
Simon is a firm believer in nurturing talent through his companies, providing opportunities for his teams to flourish and grow. This philosophy ensures that our team not only excels but also remains at the forefront of technological innovation.​​
