I also like to wonder about Fusion still. Anyone remember that Lockheed CEO boofing about the truckbed size fusion generator they could produce within 10 years?
I find it strange that everyone is leaping towards hydrogen so hard while it's been around for so long and no one has wanted to use it for heating or transportation. Coupled with the lithium that we're currently planning for batteries... Tinfoil hat me wants to believe we're establishing fuel sources for massive fusion generators. Deuterium and Tritium.

Fusion energy is not an option now or the foreseeable future. Too many hurdles to get over still. More Energy Out than In that you can scale up is the biggest one.
