True, I meant "quickly" on a relative scale. One advantage the 1st gen fusions would have is immunity to the supply shocks of fossil fuels and the intermittency of solar/wind. Plus we have workable electric vehicles and every home that has fossil-fuel powered heat by definition has a connection to the electric grid.

It wouldn't happen overnight, but I can think of few things that would kickstart the electrification of everything better than functional fusion power plants.
