Portable fusion reactors are advanced power generating modules for equipment grids, and the most powerful one in Space Age. They generate 2.5 MW of power, equivalent roughly 83.3 portable solar panels or 3.3 portable fission reactors, while taking up only a 4×4 area in the equipment grid.

Portable fusion reactors are an unlimited source of energy and require nothing to power them.

Trivia

  • The model is a reference to the movie Back to the Future, specifically the "Mr. Fusion" item on the back of the DeLorean. The "Mr. Fusion" is itself a riff on "Mr. Coffee," as the prop was a modified coffee maker.
  • The portable fusion reactor is the only item in base game Factorio to become Space Age exclusive content.
