I wonder if this could be used to create a hybrid fission-fusion plant based on inertial confinement. Use a small fission reactor to run a much larger fusion reactor. Sort of like a staged thermonuclear bomb, but controlled.

Inertial confinement fusion could generate power right now if we had amazingly efficient lasers.
