According to our best understanding of astrophysics, the sun is expected to cease being able to sustain fusion in its interior in approximately five billion years. It will expand into a red giant and then collapse into a white dwarf, at which point it will still be very hot and remain so for many billions of years as the stored heat gradually leaks out, but it will no longer be producing new energy through fusion.
