The Trump Media & Technology Group and TAE Technologies on Tuesday announced the start of a site search for a planned fusion power plant.

“The TMTG team is actively holding discussions with multiple states and entities about potential sites as we look forward to completing this merger," TMTG CEO Devin Nunes said in a statement. "These are the initial steps to spark a renaissance in American energy to secure safe, clean, abundant, and affordable fusion power that will lower Americans’ energy bills and guarantee America’s predominant position in the A.I. revolution.”

TMTG and TAE merged late last year, marking the latest expansion for TMTG, which has already diversified from social media and invested in cryptocurrency, AI, and a number of other enterprises.

The company is seeking a minimum 20-acre site near a population center in a supportive state.
