In that time frame you're pretty much betting on Helion. I don't think there are any other commercial projects that have done the capital investment already that they'd likely be able to prove out in that window. I doubt I'd put Helion's odds over 20% . . . I confess, I'm actually pretty skeptical of them, honestly, so maybe more like 5-8%.
