1. A fusion generator, comprising:
a spherical housing;
a plurality of coils, wherein the plurality of coils include a poloidal field coil and a toroidal field coil that are each formed of a high-temperature superconducting tape or ribbon, wherein the toroidal field coil is tilted at an angle along a toroidal field coil axis, and wherein the toroidal field coil has a non-spiral shape; and
a graphite-fiber or graphene wrap configured to provide rigidity to the fusion generator.
