Practical fusion power isn't created by press conferences, it's created by physics -- very clever physics, so clever that all efforts to date have failed.
When you see someone predicting practical fusion power in N years, just remember -- this is the norm for fusion power research, all that changes is N.
This is not to say fusion power won't ever happen -- chances are it will happen -- but not by designing better and better press conferences.
