   Wind is actually an example of fusion power. The Sun is one giant fusion   
   reactor and causes the wind with the aid of a planet's rotation. But   
   more to the point, we do have "experimental" fusion reactors. But they   
   are not advanced enough to be efficient or cost effective. Tokamac    
   reactors have been in use for decades.
