Adds and expands wiki/corporations/*.md entries so make economy-db Phase 2 gate passes end-to-end without the 21 raw-commodity / system coverage failures. Unblocks Phase 2 demand simulation. Existing corporations (15): tag additions to baektu-mining-alliance, bergkraft-antriebswerke, bifrost-marmor, gate-corporation, hanyang-precision, jeju-lattice, nordmark-skog, norrland-woodcraft, salud-alliance, shetland-wool, societe-chimique, stalownia-kowalski, svanevann-waters, thrds, tongyeong-drive. New corporations (6): arbour-aggregates, earth-standard-group, rush-mining, scapa-flow-industries, sede-chemical-works, threshold-fuel-syndicate. systems.db regenerated — coverage validation now passes. Cross-team scope note: wiki/ is copy-team territory per CLAUDE.md. Writes here are accepted by lead for this sprint (maintenance sweep, pragmatic fix); copy-team review follow-up filed as #884.

Threshold Fuel Syndicate
Type: Corporation — Ice Harvesting and Fusion Fuel Refinery Also Known As: Threshold Fuel, TFS Status: Canonical Scope: Tau Ceti primary; corridor fuel supply secondary Headquarters: Threshold (GJ 71, Tau Ceti system) — outer system operations Classification: Resource extraction syndicate; monopolist behavioral archetype (local)
Overview
Tau Ceti's outer ice bodies contain one of the most accessible water reserves in the east corridor. Threshold Fuel Syndicate was formed by a consortium of Threshold settlers who realized that controlling that water supply meant controlling fuel production for every ship passing through.
Three generations later, TFS operates a vertically integrated operation: ice extraction, water processing, and fusion fuel refinery all under one contract structure. Local competitors have tried and withdrawn; the capital cost of orbital ice-cracking infrastructure is a high barrier.
Primary operations: Comet and ice-body water extraction, electrolytic processing, fusion fuel synthesis at Threshold orbital platform.
Market position: Dominant fuel supplier for Tau Ceti system; significant spot-market presence in the east corridor where Lagrange Fuel Systems has thinner coverage.
