Studying steam engines fit for the E-Cats: (not an easy task)
Question - "What will be the maximum presure and temperature of the output steam?"
Rossi - "550 °C, 50 bars".
Question - "Does the reaction stop if temperature rises to Ni melting temp? This is rather important safety point, ie. is china syndrome possible?"
Rossi - "If Ni melts the E-Cat stops. It works only with powders. This makes it intrinsecally (sic) safe. And do not forget that we do not leave radioactive material, we do not use radioactive material ."
Natural News are now also covering the Rossi story - read their article here.
Energy Catalyzer inventor Andrea Rossi has confirmed that a 1 Megawatt facility will be built in the United States. For now though, the identity of the mystery firm is not known and won't be until a joint statement is made nearer the time of launch.
The startling information comes from the comments section of Rossi's "Journal Of Nuclear Physics". Until now there was only mention of a "contract of great importance being signed". It appears that the contract is to build a 1MW power plant somewhere in the United States.
Rossi's company - Leonardo Corporation is located in Florida, so there is speculation that the company in question is located there also.
Rossi loves his new adopted country (USA). He said "everybody who knows me knows how much I owe to the USA, the place of my rebirth and the place where I have chosen to reside and make the manufacturing of our products. I am fighting, as all of you, to give my energies to this great country to overcome the crisis. We are just doing it."
I continue to follow your E-Cat progress with interest and admiration.
A while back you mentioned that you had signed an agreement with a major U.S. firm and thought that a joint press release would be made soon. Being anxious for the E-Cat to get some mainstream attention in the U.S., I wondered if you can give us any further news/information on the major firm, the nature of the contract, or when we might see the press release.
Thanks and God’s speed on your exciting journey.

Dear Mr Bill Conley:
I due time we will make a press conference, when the 1 MW plant in the concern of our USA Customer will be in operation. To avoid useless chattering I decided, from now on, to make public only the facts of my Customers’ plants in operation . Too much talking has been done already.
Ampenergo - a company formed in 2009 with connections to the Department Of Energy (DoE) has been named as the partner firm to assist in the proliferation of the E-Catalyzer Cold Fusion technology. This is absolutely HUGE News and another ringing endorsement of Rossi's Cold Fusion Technology.
Ampenergo will receive part of the royalties on all sales of licenses and products built on the energy catalyzer in the Americas. Most interesting of all is that Free Energy Truth had in the last few weeks asked Rossi about potential contracts or involvement with the DoE and now it is confirmed that the partner firm has deep ties with the DoE in terms of the founders of Ampenergo.
"The founders of Ampenergo are Karl Norwood, Richard Noceti, Robert Gentile and Craig Cassarino.
Two of them also founded the consulting firm LTI – Leonardo Technologies Inc. – which for 10 years has been working on contracts amounting to several millions of dollars for the U.S. Defense and Energy departments, and with a recent contract with DOE amounting to 95 million dollars.
This latest development in the ongoing story of Andrea Rossi and the Energy Catalyzer raises the level of seriousness and importance with which this has now attained, and is yet another firm endorsement of the growing reality that WE HAVE A NEW PRIMARY ENERGY SOURCE - safer than nuclear and infinitely cheaper than ALL other traditional sources.
It is also another nail in the coffin of the pseudoskeptic establishment protection police who must by now be gagging on their own flem at what this means for their shambolic house of cards. The days of their sneering and mockery of exotic energy technologies are rapidly coming to an end. Free Energy is alive and well.
Now you will see the anonymous cowards turn their attention to explaining their way out of this. Some have already started attacking the technology in any way they can out of pure frustration as we've seen in some forums. Others as we reported yesterday have taken to dubious editing of Wikipedia and trying to play down the significance of this. This is natural. It is the last dying breath of the flat earth society.
This is not some backyard technology out of someone's garage, but already we've seen in the past few weeks that the investment so far runs into the hundreds of millions, with 3 production plants and now we are seeing links back to US govt DoE.
As they say in Rossi's native Italy "Wake up and smell the Penne Al Arbiata" - It's time to take the e-catalyzer seriously.
Read the full article in every lovely detail on NY Teknik.
The drooling pseudoskeptic establishment defending goons that Wikipediaseems to be good at attracting as page editors are once again using underhand tactics to try and undermine and distort the facts on the public perception.
This time, their target is the information page on Andrea Rossi and the energy catalyzer. Rossi's (Cold Fusion Device) the energy catalyzer is a revolutionary new energy technology which outperforms coal, oil, gas and nuclear on every aspect from price, portability to safety and has the potential to be a new primary energy source.
Top Of Google Searches - WHY?
Wikipedia articles usually appear as one of the first links in the majority of all Google searches. This position of authority and generally held assumption as "the authority on truth" is completely without justification given the ability of anyone (regardless of knowledge) to anonymously edit and therefore negatively influence public opinion through the use of biased editing and omission.
The edits and "talk" contain references to "perpetual motion machines", magicians pulling rabbits out of a hat, and various other references to perceived pseudoscience. This is a tactic that has long been used by the pseudo-skeptic community. The aim here is to discredit by association with a fringe topic or notion.
Brian Josephson - Nobel Prize winning Physicist among others has made edits to the page which have been consistently deleted due to the establishment protection bias of the Wikipedia self-appointed "information police".
The activities taking place here (and this is prevalent in many subject matter areas where an establishment bias is held) are primarily examples of:
acting so as to prevent balance being achieved in the introductory section
This latest abuse of power and abuse of the Google ranking system is a deliberately orchestrated attack on the truth about energy technology that could transform the world.
In this next instance Mats Lewan (NYTeknik Writer) quite rightly points out that they've been changing the phrase "is" to "was" to skew the meaning of the paragraph into the negative.
"I've noted that some of you have changed back and forth between "is" and "was" in the phrase "The plant which would supply heating for Defkalion's own purposes only, was supposed to be inaugurated in October 2011." Please explain your changing. As far as I know (I was the one who wrote the original piece based on my own interviews with Defkalion and Rossi) the plan for inauguration in October is still on track." --Matslewan (talk) 22:22, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
And here there is an obvious attempt to find negative aspects on Rossi and his character. "Is there someone with a stronger background in the Italian language who can look at it:Petroldragon? It looks like this guy has had some serious legal issues in the past relating to a 'green' technology company. TenOfAllTrades(talk)".
Here Mats Lewan's character is being attacked in a failed attempt to try and discredit his information.
"The article is entirely supported by blog entries, half by an IT writer who for the most part is just repeating the inventor's assertions, and half from the inventor's self-published web site. The article is largely structured as yet another blog, with an entry for each spate of press releases (one section for each press conference, plus one for their nearly-invisible company). Right now, this is a dreadful article that grants undue weight to unreliable sources. I'm beginning to believe that proper secondary sources just don't exist for this topic right now, and that it isn't appropriate for Wikipedia to have an article on this at all right now."
"For what it's worth, I don't think that Lewan is involved in any sort of deception himself; I consider it much more likely that he's just getting played. In any event, a blogger is not a good sole source for what would be – if true – this century's most stunning technological advance." TenOfAllTrades(talk) 00:14, 7 April 2011 (UTC) "Why are you referring to a reporter for a well-established technical newspaper as a 'blogger'? Do you not appreciate the difference between the two forms of literature? People can consult the W. article on Ny Teknik if they are unclear as to the importance of the publication that Lewan writes for." Brian Josephson (talk) 22:15, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Here, AndyTheGrump lives up to his name with some good old fashioned establishment defending. Doesn't he realize that Time magazine, Nature et al will need to be dragged kicking and screaming before admitting to the fact that the energy catalyzer is a real phenomenon.
"The policy regarding extraordinary/fringe science is well established, and until the scientific community recognises the validity of this device, we won't. End of story." - AndyTheGrump
Here, he conveniently ignores Kullander and Essen's report and the work of the University of Bologna and University of Upsalla, not to mention another dozen or so physicists and engineers who've ACTUALLY been present and supervising an e-cat experiment.
"Personally, my highest-level qualification is in the social sciences, rather than in physics, but since all the evidence suggests that this 'phenomenon' is either a hoax, or the product of self-deception, I'd argue that makes me well qualified to comment.": AndyTheGrump
"There is no independent coverage in the mainstream scientific press, peer-reviewed or otherwise. Realistically, this article shouldn't exist – and shouldn't be providing free publicity – until after there is either independent, peer-reviewed scientific reporting of the device and its mechanism (admittedly, unlikely)"...TenOfAllTrades
"Prof. TenOfAllTrades, how are you planning to explain the observed temperature rise on conventional grounds? Numbers please, not faith! Re work previous to Rossi, an example is the work of Claytor, done at LANL (Los Alamos National Laboratory) of which you may or may not have heard, which detected definitive signatures of tritium." --Brian Josephson
"It seems to be a prevailing myth that work in this field is not published in the regular journals -- if you look at the excellent Library at lenr.org you will find many examples."
This behavior is standard practice by the establishment defending anonymous "experts" who hide behind pseudonyms while attacking the truth and trying to manipulate and distort any facts that they don't like.
Prof Josephson makes this stunningly accurate summary on his homepage.
Sociological comment: "Sources such as Nature appear to want to bury this news; at what point will it become so widely known that they will no longer be able to ignore it?" - Prof Brian Josephson
The blatant attempts to distort the truth by self-appointed "experts" has been all too obvious in recent days and is continuing now as we speak.
Wikipedia should never be trusted as a source of truth and accuracy as it is only reflective of the prejudices of the page editors who in most cases are establishment goons closed off to independent thought and hell bent on protecting the status quo.
Andrea Rossi's e-catalyzer technology will change the world as we know it. The e-catalyzer or (e-cat) is the world's first commercial cold fusion technology in production right now with a 1MW facility due to open in the United States and Greece.
With a massive 33:1 power output ratio, it is safe, reliable and a fraction of the cost of conventional energy sources such as oil, gas, coal and many pseudo green technologies. With further refinement and power optimizations in progress, this is the technology certain to transform our society and lift the world economy into a new energy revolution and a period of very rapid change.
We have been reporting this story since January when the first demonstration took place. Since then, there have been multiple validations, and thanks to an ongoing dialogue with the inventor Andrea Rossi we have been able to produce regular ecat news updates. Additionally we are tracking new developments via quick informational videos - the latest of which is posted below.
Andrea Rossi Energy Catalyzer News Part 3
Mainstream television, radio and news websites are still ignoring or refusing to cover the story, despite the obvious magnitude of this development and it's implications for the world.
Andrea Rossi's revolutionary new cold fusion technology, the "Energy Catalyzer" which is in full production at this moment, has been granted an Italian patent.
The Italian Patent Office granted a patent for Rossi's energy catalyzer on 6th April. The patent runs out on April 9th 2028. The granting of the patent is yet another significant step in the acceptance of this legitimate technology on it's path to worldwide acceptance.
Rossi's energy catalyzer or "e-cat" as it is also known, has a power density to cost ratio which beats all fossil fuel sources hands down, is completely safe and has the added benefit of being scaleable from 2.5Kw to Multi Megawatt facilities. If you couple that with the fact that it's fuel supply (powdered nickel) is so cheap and abundant you can quite clearly see that the energy catalyzer has the ability to revolutionize the world.
There is no longer any reason to burn oil, coal or gas, except for the fact these fuel sources are already heavily integrated into our existing infrastructure. The biggest problem for the e-cat at the moment is that most people have not came to terms with the fact that it is a real technology and is not a hoax. This only goes to prove that as a species we are so highly conditioned to reject anything that goes contrary to accepted physics and beliefs. Those people who still remain sceptical of the validity of the energy catalyzer should re-examine the validations that have occurred to date.
Since January this year there have been no less than 4 highly impressive and successful demonstrations of the energy catalyzer, each time producing Kilowatts of power from just a few hundred watts input. To date there have been successful validations from University Of Bologna, Italy, and tests carried out in the presence of Sven Kullander (Professor Emeritus at Uppsala University) who is also chairman of the National Academy of Sciences Energy Committee and Prof Hanno Essen associate professor of theoretical physics and a lecturer at the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology and chairman of the Swedish Skeptics Society. Essen sits on the committee that decides Nobel prizes for physics and chemistry.
Those tests conducted showed energy production that massively exceeds the capabilities of ANY possible chemical reaction. The conclusion from Kullander and Essen was - "Any chemical process for producing 25 kWh from any fuel in a 50 cm3 container can be ruled out. The only alternative explanation is that there is some kind of a nuclear process that gives rise to the measured energy production."
”You just have to embrace a new technology that might solve the energy problems of mankind, at least until it can be rejected,” Swedish professor Sven Kullander said in a scientific discussion on the Italian ‘energy catalyzer’.
Rossi has been holding off on disclosing what the secret catalyst in the nickel / hydrogen reaction is until the patents have been granted. Although an Italian patent has been granted Rossi has said he will not speculate on what he thinks is enabling the reaction until nearer the time of the 1MW facility opening.
The Italian patent is a good first step, but there are still issues to be fought with the granting of priceless European and US patents.
Meanwhile, the coverage from mainstream media has been zero (especially strange when you think of recent events in Fukoshima, Japan). To date only a handful of blogs and sites including this one are regularly reporting the news of these world-changing events and recently I asked Rossi if he had any interview requests from major media to which he answered an emphatic "No".
There are always conspiracy theories surrounding the suppression and denial of important information to the general public that could upset the money and power balance of the world.
In this case however it is conspiracy FACT. One hundred and seventeen (117) days and counting of absolute stonewalled silence on arguably the greatest scientific advance in living history.
"We have the final product in our hands, not the experimental one, exactly the one that we are going to produce. It works excellent."
3 Cold Fusion Catalyzer Manufacturing Facilities On The Way
Final Commercial Product Design Of E-Catalyzer Ready To Go
200 Million In Investment
300,000 Energy Catalyzers Produced Per Year
Several "Important Countries" already requesting the Ecat modules.
RAI TV News (an Italian TV station) recently featured a lengthy news item on Andrea Rossi and his energy catalyzer invention. Among those interviwed were Swedish scientists Sven Kullander of Upsalla University who is also chairman of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences Energy Committee and Hanno Essen (Associate professor of theoretical physics at the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology and chairman of the Swedish Skeptics Society). They recently said of the energy catalyzer:
“Any chemical process should be ruled out for producing 25 kWh from whatever is in a 50 cubic centimeter container. The only alternative explanation is that there is some kind of a nuclear process that gives rise to the measured energy production.”
Defkalion Green Technologies
The news item also featured a fascinating question and answer session with executives Alexandros Xanthoulis and David C. Aurel from Defkalion Green Technologies interviewed by Angelo Saso from RAI TV. The Defkalion factory will be the site of the inaugural October 1MW Energy Catalyzer Plant. The plant to be built in Xanthi, Greece, will be the first ever cold fusion power facility in history to be developed. Defkalion will also have exclusive license to manufacture and sell the energy catalyzer modules.
Here, Defkalion executive Alexandros Xanthoulis indicates that the first plant in Xanthi, Greece will be used as a reference site for other businesses interested in pursuing the ecatalyzer for their energy generation needs.
Alexandros Xanthoulis: "The 1MW facility in Xanthi will however we will also use it as a presentation or showcase for future potential interested parties."
Angelo Saso "Is the Energy Catalyzer ready for the market?"
Alexandros Xanthoulis: "We have the final product in our hands, not the experimental one, exactly the one that we are going to produce. It works excellent."
David C. Aurel: "Actually the device what we are going to sell (or let's say provide) is going to be a 10kW device producing solely heat.
Angelo Saso: "How much will it consume in terms of fuel and money?"
David C. Aurel: "Again speaking about households will have no other charges or costs except for the leasing fee because we will provide all the ingredients for the device."
Angelo Saso: How many devices will you run out?
David C. Aurel: "As many as we can produce. As a rule of thumb we can assume a final full capacity of 300,000 units per year."
The narrator Angelo Sasso then goes on to say that "A factory to commence production and a further 2 on paper." So it would seem that the plant in Greece is just the first of at least THREE energy catalyzer facilities.
The question of who is behind this company comes up and is answered by David C Aurel - "Defkalion is funded by a group of non-governmental entities. It's not just private investors but they are entities also in industry and international. They come from different parts of the world."
Angelo Saso: How much money will be invested in the project?
"Well to cover Greece and Balkans we estimate about 200 million.. I believe it 100%, our investors believe it 100%. and if you see the messages we are getting from all over the world, they believe it 100%. There are several countries (important countries) who are already requesting to buy the product from us.
