Until December no group able to produce more energy from reaction than it consumes. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory repeated breakthrough in experiment on July 30. Scientists believe fusion power stations still decades away.

This is just the energy going into and out of the pellet. There are still huge inefficiencies in the lasers and cooling systems that mean we can’t just hook this up to the power grid right now. We’ll need much more efficient lasers first.
