  • LENR Companies
    • Overviews
      • Rossi Energy Catalyzer, Defkalion and other LENR Updates - Ecat World reports that the most recent issue of the American Chemical Society’s Chemical and Engineering News magazine includes an article entitled, “Reviving Cold Fusion.” written by Steven K. Ritter. The brief summary reads, “After 20-plus years of outcast status, unconventional heat-producing nuclear reactions still seem plausible”. (NextBigFuture; May 21, 2012)
    • Rossi, Leonardo Corp - E-Cat
      • The Quiet Evolution of a More Puurfect E-Cat - Many thanks to Hank Mills for submitting this guest post to E-Cat World As the politicians and media pundits of the world continue to banter on about gas prices, the cost of energy and global warming, they continue to ignore the technological breakthrough that will bring about an end to the age of fossil...

      • Rossi on 600 Degrees Celsius E-Cat: “Yes, it Works” - When I have Andrea Rossi previously regarding the heat he was able to achieve with the new and improved E-Cat configuration, he cautiously declined to name a temperature. Last week, Brian Josephson reported that the temperature was 600 degrees C, and yesterday, Rossi made a public statement about it: “Today, Saturday May 19th,right now,... (E-CatWorld; May 20, 2012)

          Dear Andrea Rossi,

          I would like to congratulate you for the rapid progress that has been made towards achieving stable high temperatures with the new industrial E-Cat module. Your progress is remarkable and is certain to continue.

          In 2011 you gained many supporters who became fascinated with your technology, and the potential it holds to be utilized for the betterment of human civilization. Many of these supporters, including myself, became emotionally invested in your progress and the success of the E-Cat. In a world of almost constant warfare, human suffering, and economic turmoil a technology like the E-Cat represents a ray of hope in a dark, gloomy world.

          The frequent tests you allowed in 2011 were extremely meaningful. To anyone without an agenda or pseudo-skeptic bias, they clearly demonstrated beyond any doubt the E-Cat technology works as claimed. In addition, the tests gave your supporters something to study, share with others, and discuss amongst themselves while they waited for the “world” as a whole to take notice.

          In contrast to last year, 2012 has been quite different. For reasons that no one can refute, you have chosen to stop allowing tests of the E-Cat, and focus totally on pushing the technology to the market place. Obviously, this is the goal we all want to see met, so the E-Cat technology can go from an amazing discovery, to being utilized in a widespread manner.

          I recognize that you are not going to allow any additional tests. However, I would like to ask you to consider posting some test data — from a test you have already performed — as a “pick-me-up” for your supporters. For example, it would be a very significant morale booster to see a sheet of test data and some graphs from one of the new modules producing high temperature steam.

          Obviously, this will do nothing to change the minds of diehard skeptics and cynics. However, it would be appreciated by those who have been following your work and progress on developing the E-Cat. We have went for a while now with little hard data (which was plentiful last year) and having a “bone” to chew on would do us a lot of good.

          Unlike conducting a new test, posting such already acquired data would not take you a lot of time, would require little preparation, and you could control exactly what information is released. Although the same skeptics will howl like they always have, I think you would get a lot of appreciation from those of us who have been trying our best to support your efforts in whatever way we can.

          Sincerely,
          Hank Mills

      • Rossi Keeps His LENR Hopes Alive - Andrea Rossi will go down in history as either the biggest LENR fraud or most persistent LENR advocate ever. His own tenacity has placed him on this slippery slope. After years of failed promises, most faithful LERN followers have given up listening to Rossi altogether, but he has a gift for getting attention. (CleanTechAuthority; May 23, 2012)
      • E-Cat Plants R&D Locations - Andrea Rossi initially said that he would build a manufacturing facility in Italy, and perhaps another one in Sweden. However, due to recent issues with the Italian government, Rossi has decided not to build a plant in Italy. (ECatReport; May 19, 2012)
        • Rossi Decides to Move Ecat Production after Radiation Allegations - Andrea Rossi has apparently decided to move all the production of his ecat low energy nuclear reaction devices to the United States and Sweden. He made the decision after a letter from an Italian government official raising questions about his work was published on 22 Passi an Italian blog. The remark was apparently a response to a question raised in Italy’s Parliament. (EnergyCatalyzer3; May 17, 2012)
      • Strong Earthquake in Bologna, Rossi claims to have 600 degree Ecat - What media sources are describing as a strong earthquake struck Bologna, Italy, where Andrea Rossi is carrying out his ecat research on Sunday, May 20. Rossi’s workshop, laboratory and a production facility for the ecat low energy nuclear reaction devices are in the city. (ColdFusion3; May 20, 2012)

    • Defkalion - Hyperion
      • Can Defkalion Survive the Greek Crisis? - As reports come in that a run on Greek banks has begun, and the EU continues to waffle and hedge about what to do about the “Greek Problem,”  it should give us pause as to the ultimate fate of Defkalion Green Technologies.  Economic and political stability are important to the ultimate success of any new business, and this would be especially true as it regards a totally new technology that has the potential to change the geopolitical and geoeconomic landscape of the entire planet.

    • Brillouin 
      • Video of Brillouin Energy’s Phase I Reactor in Action - A video recently posted on Brillouin Energy’s Youtube account shows a test of their Phase 1 system in which cell in which a compression wave from their Quantum Reactor (Q) is passed through an anode in open beaker of water. Brillouin’s Robert Godes demonstrates what happens when the Q is turned off and on... (E-CatWorld; May 24, 2012)
    • Mitch Swartz, NANAR
      • Spreading Awareness of Cold Fusion - I can’t help but reflect on what Barry Simon said in the video he released of his visit to MIT.

    • Anthor / Rome High School Students
      • A short test dell'Athanor in Rome and Caserta - The timing of the tests on 'Athanor dell'IIS Pirelli, promoted and organized by 22 steps of love and its surroundings, is approaching. In the last email sent today to the blog, Eng. Abundo speaks of tests that are placed in ROME. A second line leads instead to Caserta, where in parallel will be Dr Domenico Cirillo to oversee further tests sull'Athanor. (22Passi; May 22, 2012)

      • NASA Releases More About Its LENR Research - NASA has released another video disclosing its ongoing LENR research. Entitled Abundant Clean/Green Energy, the latest video is much more understated than the one released on January 12. I suppose with this video NASA is attempting to avoid the firestorm of criticism and inquiry that it received after its last video. (E-CatSite; May 24, 2012)
    • A Crack in the Code - There is much speculation on the nature of the cold fusion reaction. What starts a nuclear reaction when hydrogen meets a tiny piece of metal? Low-energy nuclear reactions LENRs do not occur often in Nature. We generally do not see (…) (ColdFusionNow; May 24, 2012)
