You’re an engineer who can’t figure out that burning 10 units of gas to make 4 units of electricity, then putting that through a heat pump to pull 12 units of heat into your home is better than just burning the gas in your home?

I would be incredibly surprised if solar research has received less than $35 billion over the last 70 years. Maybe fusion wouldn’t be decades from being practical if it had been given more funding than a handful of aircraft carriers or three quarters of a social media company.
