Breakthrough shrinks fusion power plant and expands practicality

From the article

Commercial fusion power plants may be cheaper and easier to build thanks to a breakthrough by TAE Technologies that allows reactors to generate their own containment fields without the need for massive magnetic coils and other systems.

Practical fusion power has been touted as only 25 years in the future ever since 1945, but there are some bright spots on the horizon that suggest that it could come to pass as soon as the next decade.
