$AMFN Fusion power is making rapid progress, but it is unlikely to “take over” power generation for several decades.
A realistic timeline looks like this:
* 2026–2035: Demonstration plants begin operating. Companies such as Commonwealth Fusion Systems, Helion Energy, and TAE Technologies aim to demonstrate net electricity production. Some may supply power to a limited number of customers if their milestones are met.
* 2035–2045: The first commercial fusion plants could be built, though electricity will likely be expensive initially. These plants would supplement, not replace, existing generation.
