Yes, in the long term, although I am not keen on having a fusion plant on the planetary surface while we still have people on it.

People have also been working actively on fusion since the 60's and progress has been pretty slow. Substantially slower than our progress with solar, and solar is cleaner and less risky. Solar power is the way to go.
