Zap Energy: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)
Zap Energy's fusion technology uses sheared flows instead of magnetic fields to stabilize plasma. By passing electric current through the flow, a magnetic field is created that confines and compresses the plasma. The amount of current determines the pressure and density within the plasma. The flow-stabilized Z-pinch method offers cost-effective fusion capabilities and requires less funding than traditional fusion technologies.
Zap Energy has raised $130M across 1 funding round on record, the most recent a Series D of $130M announced in Sep 2024.
That round is above the $15M median round size for Energy companies tracked on FundedIQ over the last two years.

About FundedIQ's Zap Energy Funding Data
FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.
Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Zap Energy is left off this page rather than filled in.
