Yes, fusion is the holy grail of energy production. Unfortunately it is equally elusive. I remember when I was at school believing that fission power would just be a transitional power source until fusion was mastered. Thirty five years later not much has changed in that regard, except that there is now more emphasis on renewable power. I'm not against fusion research but I can't help wondering where we would be if the money poured into fusion research had been spent on renewables. Even better, what if the money spent on military research had been spent on renewables. I suppose I'm preaching to the choir on that one.
