No, because: In fusing plasma, the main carrier of energy out, is the neutron, and methods to efficiently use this energy are still to be developed, wait for the fusion plant prototype DEMO. It is not possible to store energetic neutrons. Fusion ignition is the point at which a fusion reaction becomes self-sustaining, i.e. the energy being given off by the fusion reactions heats the fuel mass more rapidly than various loss mechanisms cool it. At this point, the additional energy needed to heat the fuel to fusion temperatures is no longer needed and can be turned off. Throttling off the deuterium or tritium fuels will stop the reaction. The produced helium nucleus carries an electric charge which will respond to the magnetic fields of the tokamak and remain confined within the plasma. However, some 80 % of the energy produced is carried away from the plasma by the neutron which has no electrical charge and is therefore unaffected by magnetic fields. The neutrons will be absorbed by the surrounding walls of the tokamak, transferring their energy to the walls as heat. In ITER, this heat will be absorbed into cooling water, through heat exchangers being dispersed through cooling towers. In the subsequent fusion plant prototype DEMO and in future industrial fusion installations, the heat will be used to produce steam, driving turbines turning alternators producing electrical output.
