Commercial fusion energy is almost certainly a pipe dream. We already have good alternatives. Short of some unpredictable major breakthrough in physics on the level of something like cold fusion, the current activity in the fusion space will basically just serve to demonstrate definitively that it's not viable.

Not sure what you’re trying to say. France gets 0% of its energy from fusion, and the same is true of every country on Earth.
