We still have a long ways to go for Fusion power to get on the grid. We should be investing more time and resources into making solar and wind power all the more efficient. We are harnessing a small fraction of the suns rays at the current time so if we can come up with better solar cells power output will sky rocket.
Yeah, but imagine if we were spending $12 billion a day on fusion power instead of Iraq.

You wouldn't need to make it cold, per se, you would just need to keep the reaction under control without using more energy than the reaction puts out. Or you could make it cold.

Where's the nearest fusion plant?
The nearest one to me is at Princeton University.
