Really?
It's hard to enough to fuse hydrogen to helium in a controlled, useful way, and although the controlled fusion has been attained it costs an enormous amount of added energy, and maintaining the reaction continuously and suitably for power generation is still very elusive.
Thorium to uranium though? Do you have the source of that announcement? It looks wrong, as if relayed by a journalist who did not really understand what the scientists had reported.
