Even if the research on laser ignition and the parallel z-pinch program really were principally directed towards the creation of a pure-fusion weapon, the physics are applicable to power generation too. Probably more so, actually, because it seems to take a plant the size of a large factory to make a pure fusion explosion equivalent to a few kilograms of coal burning :-)
