Probably not. REBCO was discovered in the 80s but is difficult to work with. A fusion energy Manhattan project would make 3-4 reactors in parallel. If it happened in the 2000s then they would have thrown significant effort at HTS technology. That’s one of the most obvious areas to invest in. The whole world would benefit from that.
