    Dear Andrea Rossi,
    Do I understand well that the QuarkX will be able to deliver tri-generation of heat, light and electric power ?

    Dustin:
    Yes: my turn was from 6 p.m. to 10 a.m. of the next day, for the rest of the day ( from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) the plant was attended to by the men of IH.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Jumping Jupiter:

    http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/28/science/jupiter-great-red-spot.html?_r=0

    http://www.latimes.com/science/sciencenow/la-sci-jupiter-great-red-spot-hot-20160727-snap-story.html

    http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-36904456

    http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nature18940.html

    These are some of the articles describing the discovery that Jupiter’s Great Red spot and the upper atmosphere of other gas giants (Saturn, Uranus & Neptune) are much hotter than expected. (A temperature of 1500 degrees C was mentioned in the BBC article.)

    I don’t think these phenomenon could result from Jupiter-sized thunderclaps (acoustic waves). Or from chemical reactions. Which leaves the question about what is the source of this enormous energy?

    The Nature article mentions the detection of H3+ molecules, which would be composed of three Hydrogen atoms and two electrons.

    Do you have an idea of the possible sources of energy sources on Jupiter?

    Do you think there also could be Lithium on Jupiter?

    Jovian regards,

    Joseph Fine

    Dear Andrea Rossi,
    During the one year test of the 1 MW E-Cat there were moments during which other persons but not you were in the plant ?
    Thank you if you can answer,

    Dear Mr Rossi,

    Your answer to me about your IP secrecy policy indicates that a change is necessary in the future to facilitate market introduction of your eCat..

    1) How many persons today do have the “full” knowledge and insight of the cat??.. 5, 10..15 ??
    2) When do you think there will be a change of information policy for your IP. This year or next??

    Dear Andrea,
    Some months ago the QuarkX was tested for some weeks together with a potential partner who decided to join with you after the test.
    1. Can you tell us if you are now intensively working together with this partner?
    2. If no, does it depend on the ongoing tests on the QuarkX?
    3. If yes, is this partner involved in the industrialization of the QuarkX?
    You are still intensely working on the QuarkX.
    4. Is the work you are doing fundamental: I.e are you discovering new aspects and/or testing theory? or
    5. Are you working on its reliability only? or are you
    6. Improving main aspects like COP, electricity output, light output
    Thank you for answering our questions
    I wish you excellent progress, kind regards, Gerard

    1- it is impossible: I am not ubiquitous ( this too depends on the fact that Fermions can’t reach the speed of the light ).
    2- the safety certification makes necessary that a certified technician is present in the factory where the E-Cat is working, but not necessarily adjacent to the plant
    3- yes
    4- yes
    5- not necessarily on-site, but necessarily in connection with

    Rossi on the Challenges of Developing E-Cat Plants

  • Josh

    Dr Andrea Rossi:
    The 1 MW E-Cat in construction is substantially equal to the one tested for one year in the factory of the customer ?

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    With regards to creating an E-Cat plant that can operate with stability

    1) Do the E-Cat plants still need your (or your team’s) intervention to maintain stability?
    2) If yes, can it be controlled remotely via the internet, or does a human technician have to be on site?
    3) Do you currently have a sufficient theoretical grasp of the E-Cat reaction to be able understand its behavior?
    4) Do you currently have the staff on hand with the skills to create the needed automated control system?
    5) Will your release of the 1MW plants to “pioneer” customers include having Leonardo personnel on-site for troubleshooting?

    Thank you,

    Frank Acland

    Hi Tom,
    Thank you for this insightful response; one that I had hoped would tie in the preceding related comments. Your classic case of Satan challenging God over the experiential life of a single man, Job, is a prime example of two very polarized points of view.

    One view believing man generally will buckle under pressure to its lowest level (even cursing his creator). The other view knows otherwise from what a man specifically experienced. One based on the general paradigm human response, the other knowing the exact response from a tested heart.

    However, it did not stop there. Job did not understand his own experience. He believed shear will-power was required to maintain his righteousness with God. Knowing the results of his self-righteousness would only lead to a further gap between Him and Job.

    Although Job was considered the most righteous man of his time God wanted to expose his feeble performance against His omnipotence. Job finally acquiesced to God’s perfect logic. He finally realized it was not about religion but relationship.

    As Deepak Chopra pointed out (an epiphany to me), “There is a gap, then, between what we experience and where that experience comes from, a gap between origin and phenomenon”.
    Thanks Tom.

  • Tom Conover

    Dear Brokeeper,

    At Andrea’s kind invitation to respond to your question about “Why Experience is a Total Mystery”, I offer you the following information for your review:

    Your comment earlier in the blog discussing “‘God and Evolution’ verses an impossible ‘God or Evolution’?” and your Q/A – Can He do that? As a fundamentalist Christian these first thoughts went through my mind reading this thought provoking title. The obvious answer is yes, “with all things are possible with God” (Mt 19:26), prompts me to reply to your inquiry in the format that I have chosen.

    “Could you comment on the following article “Why Experience Is a Total Mystery (According to Science)” by Deepak Chopra, MD.?”

    The article begins: “Most of us have gotten used to the traditional opposition of science and religion. This opposition arose because two worldviews clashed, and only one could win. It was a zero sum game. On one side science stood for facts, data, measurement, experimentation, and a goal of pure objectivity. On the other, religion was cast as entirely the opposite, being faith-based, irrational, unprovable, totally lacking in data, and inherently subjective, which is to say, unreliable. But this was a case where the winning side (science and the larger secular world) claimed the right to paint the losing side (religion and the spiritual world) in the worst possible light.”

    Science vs. religion. Science declares it’s right to rule the world, based on it’s self endowed assertion that it had the right to do so, and damn anyone that says different!

    My comment in reply to your is “My Experience is a Total Mystery (According to Science), and the reasons are stated below!”.

    This assertion has been made before. Satan, the “ruler of this world” presented himself to the court in heaven … “. Job 1:6 Now the day came among them. 7 Then Jehovah said to Satan: “Where have you come from?” Satan answered Jehovah: “From roving about on the earth and from walking about in it.” 8 And Jehovah said to Satan: “Have you taken note of my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth. He is an upright man of integrity, fearing God and shunning what is bad.” 9 At that Satan answered Jehovah: “Is it for nothing that Job has feared God? 10 Have you not put up a protective hedge around him and his house and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock has spread out in the land. 11 But, for a change, stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your very face.” In this manner, in the court of the heavens, before the entire assembly of God Almighty, Satan openly challenges God’s right to rule the Creation, not just the earth …

    Personal experience defines each of us. For example, I read 4000 Sci-Fi books by the time I was 14 years old, and spent the rest of my life making the software I read about become available to my clients. I believed this was possible, and was able to accomplish the tasks. Beliefs into accomplishments. I am now trying to replicate the Rossi Effect. Beliefs into accomplishments.

    I had trouble in my later life with family and marriage. My closest friend, my wife, encouraged me to study the bible with people that were well educated on the subject. I found myself unable to disprove what I studied, (I really tried!) and became a (reluctant) lover of God, and I try to be a loyal subject of his Kingdom to this day. This was a direct result of my attempt to disprove what I studied about the bible. Beliefs into accomplishments.

    Facts are collected in our minds and are used to form opinions. Opinions are collected in our minds and are used to form attitudes. Attitudes in our minds are assembled into packages that can provide us with beliefs, that are based on an individual’s internal journey, during which facts were collected. Each individual has the opportunity to form his own belief system.

    Here are some questions that I personally therefore know the answers to, as an individual that loves God … (again, beliefs into accomplishments)

    Did God create man?
    Ge 1:26 Then God said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every creeping animal that is moving on the earth.” 27 And God went on to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.

    Did evolution spawn species?
    Ge 1:24 Then God said: “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds, domestic animals and creeping animals and wild animals of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. 25 And God went on to make the wild animals of the earth according to their kinds and the domestic animals according to their kinds and all the creeping animals of the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

    What do I need to do today?
    Luke 10:25 Now look! a man versed in the Law stood up to test him and said: “Teacher, what do I need to do to inherit everlasting life?” 26 He said to him: “What is written in the Law? How do you read?” 27 In answer he said: “‘You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole strength and with your whole mind’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’” 28 He said to him: “You answered correctly; keep doing this and you will get life.”

    Does God listen to our prayers? God listens to people from all nations. (Psalm 145:18, 19)
    Psalm 145:18 Jehovah is near to all those calling on him, To all who call on him in truth. 19 He satisfies the desire of those who fear him. He hears their cry for help, and he rescues them.

    I know now that His Word, the Bible, encourages us to speak to him about any matter that concerns us. (Philippians 4:6, 7) 6 Do not be anxious over anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.

    Do we need to pray from our heart? Yes! Some prayers are less effective when speaking with God. For example, repeating memorized prayers does not please him. Matthew 6:6 But when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret. Then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you. 7 When praying, do not say the same things over and over again as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. 8 So do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need even before you ask him.

    John Atkinson:
    The industrial plants are entered slowly in production, as for the domestic we are working on the tech and the certification issues. About the other energy sources, as I always said, they will be all integrated at the service of mankind. About coal: the E-Cat is fit to be integrated with it.

    Dr Andrea Rossi,
    Today in Ancona, Italy, they are talking at University level, about LENR: exactly as you said, after your immense work LENR are discussed about seriously in places where before you they were not considered at all. This is a strong legacy of your efforts, beyond any doubt.
    Regards,

  • Patrick Ellul

    Dear Andrea,

    It seems like you are focusing your efforts on getting the plant to behave by itself without the constant need of human supervision and intervention.
    Without this your 1MW would not be cost effective.

    1) What areas of expertise are you mostly making use of to solve this problem? Plumbers, electricians, electronics, computer programming, etc?

    2) Also, a typical 1000MW Natural Gas power station is manned by about 30 employees. Does it make sense to operate multiple of your 1MW plants from the same location and sell power to the grid, to reduce the manning costs?

    Best regards,
    Patrick

    Tom Conover’s Multiple Reactor Meltdowns (Hank Mills)

    The following article has been submitted by Hank Mills

    Another individual has emerged who seems to be producing anomalous heat while utilizing combinations of fuel similar to that used in Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat. Tom Conover has reported performing close to two hundred test runs utilizing nickel powder, lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4), and sometimes other lithium compounds. Although he has not claimed to produce quantifiable excess heat over any significant period of time, he has witnessed dramatic surges in temperature that have repeatedly destroyed his reactors.

  • John Atkinson

    In your mind’ s eye, in the future, at what point in time will e cat and his cousins out produce heat and electricity being consumed in the world ? About the equlidrium point of their joined production: do you believe coal will be replaced before solar and nuclear? Thank you again for your great and hard work,
    John Atkinson

  • Andrea Rossi

    Frank Acland:
    The construction is going on. The difficulty and the improvement are generated from the necessity to make a subject that does not need Andrea Rossi inside 16- 18 hours per day, and the engineer and the technician of IH for 8 hours per day. We need a subject able to work alone, with nobody, but a certified operator that has to check tha gauges now and again.
    To write this is easy, to imagine that it is not simple is easy too, but to understand really the difficulties is impossible for anybody that has not lived with the plant, inside the plant, for one year of his own life, attending and listening to the plant with his body inside it. The problems we had during the year have been multiple, have been resolved by our great team because we were there immediately when something was gone wrong.
    Now the E-Cat must be able to work alone.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    Can you tell us at what stage the work with manufacturing the 1MW plants is?

    I know you said you had to redesign the plants based on the experience with the 1MW plant used in the year long test. Have you tested the new design yet, and if so, how has it performed compared to the pilot?

    Thank you very much,
