39. Another interesting technology
that looks promising is the "plasma focus," basically a way of generating electricity directly from a pulse of fusion energy.

Evidently these already work and generate temperatures and X-ray emmisions that indicate true fusion is occuring. Clean. No nasty radioactive waste. Electricity is generated directly from the x-ray blast.

Looks like the oil industries worst nightmare. A 1MW power plant the size of a garage. ;)
