with heat just being a resistance residual. Modern attempts at fusion have a problem of releasing too much heat and burning out the core components of the engine. Hence the pursuit of "cold fusion", which would get you the differential that creates an electric charge thanks to the energy released by hydrogen bonding without exceeding the heat threshold that melts all your equipment.

Such models were actually developed, but they came with the caveat that they required more energy input to sustain a safe reaction than they produced. The goal, since the pioneering of this reactor, was to reach an efficiency threshold such that reactors were a net positive for the grid.
