You can find nuclear fusion in a star.
Nuclear fusion normally occurs at high temperatures and pressures. A fusion reaction would melt the container and would have to be suspended by a magnetic field in a vacuum and the container would have to be continually cooled to prevent a meltdown.
A nuclear fusion reaction has the potential to produce large amounts of energy, far exceeding current nuclear fission reactions. It is estimated that a single fusion reaction could potentially yield millions of kilowatt-hours of energy. However, practical implementation and scaling of fusion as a viable energy source on a commercial scale is still a significant challenge.
The Sun, like other stars similar to it, is sustained by a Nuclear Fusion Reaction at its core. Unlike Nuclear Power here on Earth, which is created by the process of splitting atoms (Nuclear Fission) Fusion creates energy by fusing atoms together. This has proven a difficult objective to achieve here on Earth - though it occurs naturally in stars, on Earth the problem is containment, a problem that has as yet not found a viable solution. Though the extreme gravity of stars is what initiates a fusion reaction in them, it has been theorized recently that a fusion reaction at smaller levels with chemicals is possible. This is commonly referred to as "Cold Fusion" for the relatively low amount of energy it would produce in contrast to nuclear fusion. Though Cold Fusion has largely been discounted, it continues to be researched. Often the biggest scientific breakthroughs are made by those who do not always hold to conventional scientific beliefs. If we did, we would have never done things like go to the Moon, or broken the Sound Barrier. In the time before it happened, both were considered by mainstream science as "impossible" to achieve.
You would look for high-energy electromagnetic radiation like gamma rays emitted from the star. This type of radiation is produced during nuclear fusion reactions when light atomic nuclei combine to form heavier nuclei and release energy. Detection of gamma rays can provide evidence that nuclear fusion is taking place in the core of a star.
This would be a fusion of three helium nuclei. This would happen towards the end of a star's life, it's not occurring in the sun at present, but obviously has happened in various stars in the past, which is why we have the heavy elements in our solar system
Nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion requires very high temperatures and immense pressures to start and continue. The problems with a nuclear fusion reactor would be:- 1) the high temperatures would melt the container: therefore, the reaction would have to be stored in a vacuum suspended by a magnetic field and the reactor would have to be continually cooled. 2) nuclear fusion occurs naturally in stars such as our sun: unless the fusion reaction was limited in size in some way, it would be likely that our planet is vapourised by the reaction.
Problem on nuclear fusion is upon confinement of reaction in earth atmosphere. Nuclear fusion required very high temperature to initiate the reaction. Sustaining reaction is not easy. It is likely the earliest nuclear fusion will be available commercially by 2050. It is a little far future for the current energy crisis would reach it peak around 2040.

No, it is occurring in all stars including our sun, and we would not exist otherwise. On Earth it is still experimental

This process would occur during a nuclear fusion reaction. In nuclear fusion, lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. Fusion reactions are responsible for powering the sun and other stars.

If you are asking where does solar nuclear fusion take place, then that would be at the core of stars.
To get an exact answer, you would have to specify a fusion reaction; different reactions will produce different amounts of energy. However, to get a rough idea, the energy produced is in the order of a million times more than the typical chemical reaction.
