Now that really makes clear how much energy fusion can produce! That seems so absurdly small. (It would be interesting to compare that to how much coal would be needed…)

The great thing about fusion is that its fuel costs are practically nil (even presuming a fuel as pricey as decaborane), and the great thing about aneutronic fusion is that it also doesn’t have all the costs associate with complex steam generation. It’s a win/win.
