It continues to annoy me that fusion companies make claims like "enabling a future with unlimited clean electricity.". Current, broadly used technologies such as wind and solar already deliver unlimited clean energy. What fusion promises is clean energy that is delivered more consistently - at night, or with no wind. But there are multiple paths to consistency, and improving energy storage technologies and improving the grid seem easier to do than inventing an entirely new and extremely expensive new class of energy production.
