If it makes you feel better, it probably isn't anymore. ITER, the reactor in France, isn't set up to be efficient. It is more "Well if we make it bigger it is easier. So let's make it A LOT bigger." There's people trying other ways, but ITER is an effort for "show it is possible" and most people think it is.

That being said, the schedule for first fusion is 2025 and D-T operation in 2035 (just under 20yrs). A lot of competitors think they will be successful (at FIRST fusion, not a generator for public use) before then. It is an interesting race.
