This shows how far we are from actually addressing the topic. Then there is the entire topic of primary vs final energy. One should remember that when you are consuming a kWh of electricity from coal, fossil gas or nuclear, the equivalent of two kWhs of thermal energy have been generated in pure loss.

In fact, almost one article about the solar corona has been published per day since 1943. Nuclear fusion in the heart of the Sun generates energy, of which a tiny fraction (less than 0.001%) ends up as “free magnetic energy”. Yet others will talk about “turbulence”, “ion cyclotron waves” or “magnetic reconnection”.
