Right now it can only be used in weapons, no fusion reactor experiment yet has even reached breakeven (releasing as much energy as was put in to start fusion). You must go well past breakeven to get usable power.

Is a nuclear power plant producing electricity an example of nuclear fusion?
yes. this is because nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion
What do they use nuclear fusion for?
Nuclear fusion is not used for any purpose at present, it is still in the experimental phase
A reaction in combining smaller atomic nuclei is?
nuclear fusion
Why can't they use the nuclear fusion rocket technology in for power production?
Nuclear fusion rocket technology is too expensive to use as a means for power production.
How do you use fission and fusion in a nuclear power plant?
We don't yet know how to use fusion in a power plant. All nuclear power plants use fission only. Fusion is much harder, but will be better if we can figure it out.
How is the nuclear energy in use different from fusion energy?
Because it is a fission process, not fusion
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
How is nuclear generation similar to nuclear fusion?
There is very little similarity between present day power plants which use nuclear fission, and any possible nuclear fusion plant of the future
What are two reasons that people have not been able to use nuclear fusion as an energy source?
Nuclear fusion is unsure now at industrial scale.
How is the nuclear energy now in use different from fusion energy?
Because it is a fission process, not fusion
How is nuclear energy and fusion energy different?
Nuclear energy as we use it now is from nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion is the joining up of nuclei rather than the splitting (fission), but it is not yet available on Earth.
