It’s hard to say, because other than tests of hydrogen bombs, no one has made enough energy from it to use as an alternative energy source.
Potentially:
Positive: Incredible energy density, using materials considerably more common than needed for fission. Radioactive wastes are less, and more benign than with fission.
Negative: Extremely tech intensive, and poorly developed. Likely not to yield significant energy for decades (if ever). It will also be very expensive, but this may also improve with further research.
