this is awesome, if fusion power works out it'll wipe out the largest source of co2 emissions practically overnight (within 10 years), it'd be like the horse to car transition it would happen so fast

At full operation, ITER is expected to produce 500 megawatts of fusion power from only 50 megawatts of input heating power, a tenfold gain. At this level of efficiency, the fusion reaction largely self-heats, becoming a "burning plasma."

That 10x gain would be pretty huge, if they can make it to work. I believe the record so far is only 1.5x.
