What exactly is “coal” (or “cold”?”) “fusion”?

I think it’s some kind of alternate-energy source… but how does it work? and how close is it to becoming a replacement for our current ways?

Also, is it stable at the moment? How much longer could it be before my neighborhood, for example, is ran by it?

I heard something like “1 drop of water could power a whole city for a year”… How the heck is that possible?!

 

There is NO scientific evidence that ta true “cold fusion” reaction of any type has ever occurred.
It would be a desirable energy source if it were true, but so far there aren’t even any realistic ways to approach the problem.
A clean nuclear fusion reaction would produce tremendous amounts of energy without a lot of nuclear radiation and waste.
A typical fusion reaction requires so much pressure and heat that there is NO vessel that can possibly contain the reaction.
That problem is being worked on, using electro-magnetic force fields as the container, but no real success yet. - Then, that isn’t a “cold-fusion” reaction.
