Fusion Power
Fusion Power is a tier 1 physics technology (Particles) in Stellaris 4.5.2. Its base cost is 1,250 research. It needs Fission Power. It unlocks Fusion Metabolism and Fusion Reactor and leads to 3 technologies. Console: research_technology tech_fusion_power.
What Fusion Power does
Modifiers as the game prints them, from the technology's modifier block; then the unlock lines its research card shows.
- Unlocks Component: Fusion ReactorFusion Reactor Nuclear fusion processes generate a great amount of power for ships, but without many of the risks associated with fission power.
What Fusion Power unlocks
Everything in the game files that lists this technology as a prerequisite; “condition” marks objects that check for it in their conditions instead.
How to get Fusion Power
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 95) and its weight modifiers.
What Fusion Power leads to
Technologies that list it as a prerequisite.
Other names for some empires
technology_swap: the same research shows another name (and sometimes other effects) when its condition holds.
- Fusion Metabolism
- Uses bio-ships
In the game
Nuclear fusion processes generate a great amount of power for ships, but without many of the risks associated with fission power.

How do I get Fusion Power in Stellaris?
Research Fission Power first; then Fusion Power can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options.
What does Fusion Power do?
It unlocks Fusion Metabolism (ship component) and Fusion Reactor (ship component). It leads to Cold Fusion Power, Fusion Missiles and Improved Reactor Boosters.
What is the ID of Fusion Power?
The technology's ID is tech_fusion_power. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_fusion_power (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Fusion Power cost?
1,250 physics research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
