As far as I know fusion gives no radiation (but I guess it depends on the method, the one I'm thinking off is what happens in the sun), so if something goes wrong there will be a big bang but no poisoning (just everything in the area getting vapourised
) But explosions = energy so this is unavoidable.
The only other method that could produce more energy is matter-anti-matter reactions -but that's star trek.
Remember all life on the
surface of the earth gets it's energy from the sun - so what better than lots of little suns.
