In places like Delhi NCR, especially Gurgaon, the cost of power, the infrastructure of power, and the quality of power is..lets face it.. a joke.
As an audiophile and as someone who's been doing research on sustainability the past couple of years, this particular area of research gives me some hope that in the near future we can somehow be free from the clutches of coal power and government scams.

Focus fusion or dense plasma fusion is a form of nuclear fusion that has a footprint far lower than solar, and a generator this size, can produce enough power as 5 giant wind turbines from one pulse to power upto 3500 homes.
It is the first electromagnetic (not electrochemical like most other thorium based nuclear fusion or nuclear fission power plants used today) reaction that is able to produce more energy than used to create it.
The guy behind it, eric lerner has been able to prove that this much energy can be generated within a single pulse, and it can be done safely, there are NO harmful particles whatsoever. Lerners final stage towards building a working prototype of the reactor is configuring the plasma beam in a manner the energy can be efficiently harvested.
Nuclear fission plants like the one in japan that's still leaking radiation, is only about 30% effective and has huge scope of disaster.
Thorium based Nuclear fusion that a lot of people are talking about today is about 50% efficient (India has 30% of the worlds thorium reserves and it's being stolen and exported by corrupt people btw) and is once again electrochemical and though there is lot less risk involved in the energy production, there is considerable waste matter.
Dense plasma focus fusion has the potential to be 90% efficient and is completely electromagnetically generated, there is NO waste other copper and beryllium dust during the fashioning of the rods.
It's just a matter of configuring the density of the plasma beam right now. If they can configure it properly enough to be near 90% efficient, they'll have a working prototype which can be mass produced at just 300,000 USD for small models the size a person, and 500,000 usd for a large model the size of a car.
Most news media is not covering this because anything nuclear has a stigma associated with it AND energy companies are not really happy about this type of research because it has the potential to de-centralize energy production.
Imagine apartment complexes running on 1 focus fusion reactor.
Imagine car batteries you can charge at home from a mini focus fusion reactor.
The current cost of power in the developed world is 60$ for a kilowatt. With dense plasma focus fusion it would be possible to bring it down to something around 6 cents.
Lerner has said that he will ensure the patents are held secure in their hands so that in the future these devices can be cheap enough for people to afford and not just corporations or important figures.
I don't know about ya'll but I'm pretty darn excited considering lerner says they're about 1-2 years away from a working prototype.
