Controlled fusion energy, inspired by the sun and stars, and space-based solar power (SBSP) represent two of the most promising clean and sustainable energy technologies of the future. The fast advancement in power electronics and microelectronics has sped up the development of laser and magnetic fusion; this has also led to reinvigorated interest in the large-scale solar energy harvesting via SBSP across the US, Europe, and Asia. Furthermore, growing energy-efficiency computing technologies and advanced innovations in AI tools accelerate the deployment of green energy systems.

The 2026 IEEE International Symposium on Fusion and Solar Energy Harvesting (FASEH) will bring together scientists, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to share advances in fusion energy systems and large-scale solar energy collection in space, as well as the AI applications for energy. The symposium acronym, “FASEH” is pronounced “Phasor”, echoing the term commonly used in science and engineering, to represent the sinusoidal waveforms of physical quantities in steady-state systems.
