A place of
Innovation
The Hornbill Building is part of an exciting campus which is leading the way in the Fusion Technology Cluster for the UK.
Being part of Culham Campus means being part of a hub dedicated to innovation, scientific passion and collaboration, a place where researchers, scientists and entrepreneurs come together – all with a shared vision of supporting fusion energy and advanced technology & engineering companies.
Oxfordshire is fronting the UK’s ambitions to take fusion from experiment to practical power source.
Culham Campus is the National Fusion Laboratory, where the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) are pushing the boundaries of fusion technology.
This new Grade A office space is split across four floors and is focused on providing the best research and development space with a premium office space provided at a Cat A+ fit out specification.
The building is fully electric, targeting a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating, has an EPC A and a PV enabled roof. Sustainability is key to the ethos at Culham Campus.
Outside offers a new shared 262 space multi-storey car park. The Hornbill Building has sustainability at its heart with the intention of driving lower running costs.

a pioneering
development
Culham Campus offers occupiers a home within a pioneering development, clean energy environment, and emerging scientific cluster of fusion and advanced technology and engineering organisations.
This is centred around the research excellence of the UK Atomic Energy Authority, including STEP, the Materials Research Facility, RACE, and H3AT, who are focussed on delivering the UK as a leader in sustainable fusion energy.
UKAEA is evolving Culham Campus from a renowned international centre for fusion research and development into a major commercial campus over the next 30 years.
This will support a globally significant fusion and technology cluster comprising organisations and facilities focussed on realising fusion energy to help address the world’s energy challenge.
