    Dear Andrea,

    Your E-Cat should not exist.
    In fact: ‘Scientists Have Concluded That The Universe Shouldn’t Really Exist.’
    It’s all an illusion.

    Alessandro Coppi:
    Also in this case it is necessary to start the wide diffusion with a strong economy scale, not to be buried from the beginning in all the fields of application.

    Hi Andrea, you said:”…any reverse engineering will be not able to compete.”
    This condition Will be never reached, the market has enough room for many versions of this kind of product.
    It is possible instead, that your brand and technology Will be ahead from each other, and also this could make your sign the most important of the world.

    Dr Andrea Rossi,
    I agree with your restricted pioneers market until you are not ready for a massive production.
    Godspeed,
    Ryan

  • Andrea Rossi

    Pietro F.:
    The success of our products is coherent with their commercialization phase, which is still very restricted. Wide commercialization ( in the sense defined by you) will be made when we will be able to make a massive production, to achieve an economy scale such that any reverse engineering will be not able to compete.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Dear Andrea,
    Yesterday you did’t reply on most of the comments on your blog. That’s very unusual so I am a bit worried, are you well?
    Kind regards, Gerard

  • Erik

    Dear Andrea,
    I second the suggestion of Uwe Doms. A Ecat QX powered device with the dimensions and functionality of the Remeha would easily integrate into many households in Europe by simply replacing the existing natural gas burner.
    Regards, Erik

  • Andrea Rossi

    Uwe Doms:
    Thank you for the suggestion,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Dear Andrea Rossi,

    My recommendation in the field of house installations would be the micro block power heating plant Remeha eVita from Germany. It is combined with a sterling engine and probably the best alternative to integrate the E-Cat-QX.

    All the best to you and your team

    Dear Andrea.
    I do agree with Aillas Troice in his suggestion, but to make a quick demo of QX producing electricity may be important. The Qnergy’s PCK-80 seems to me to be a perfect solution for this task. This will be a Sterlig-Rossi Energy Mashine.
    I will also again advocate for direct use of the heat: A stove directly heated by QX in the oven and in the hotplates. This will reduce the need in a home for a high installed electricity capacity. The different part of such a stove may only be used less than one hour each day on high effect, the QX may then last in the live-time of the device. A replacement of elements seems thereby unnecessary. LED-lights and electronic devises are easy to gratify. The PCK-80 will then easily fulfill the need in a home for electricity, heating rooms and all needs for hot and warm water.
    Regards Svein Henrik

  • Dear Andrea – you have mentioned using the seebeck effect which is only 5-8% efficient. Other generators mentioned are bulky, expensive and in the order of 25% efficient – eg the stirling engine. You have mentioned previously that 0-50% of the ecat QX ‘s energy can be produced in the form of light energy. “Brilliantlightpower” talk about using silicon photovoltaic cells at a light intensity of 300 x natural sunlight ( ie 300 Kw of light energy per 1 metre square of silicon solar cells). At a more conservative 100x Suns light intensity sunlight, ( 100 Kw / metre square), tge I internet suggests it’s possible to rely on passive cooling ( ceramic fins on back of cells ). Silicon cells convert at 20% efficiency = 10% overall efficiency if 50% of the ecat QX’s energy is on the form of light. I think This would be much cheaper and smaller than the heat engines you are looking at. Brilliant light power were originally planning to use newer multijunction photovoltaic cells that are 40% efficient at 3000x suns intensity but decided it would be easier to go with the more tried and proven silicon cell technology at lower intensity, with easier cooling, lower risk and lower cost. You may not be interested in going down the path of converting light energy from the ECat QX to electrical energy using photovoltaic cells but I thought I would at least mention it as a posdibilty considering you mentioned the seebeck effect. All the best Andrea !

  • Stanleee

    Signor Rossi,

    U should hook up with Jimmy Dyson(james.dyson@dyson.com).

    Your combined technologies would be fascinating, particularly on engine/generator front, using his simple drive train systems etc. He even requires 400mph.air for cleaning systems and we know your kitties can blow a lot of hot air!

  • Pietro F.

    Buongiorno Andrea,

    Il successo commerciale dell’impianto da 1MW non é arrivato, cosa Le fa pensare che l’EcatX lo avrà?
    e quando sarà ufficialmente messo sul mercato?
    The commercial success of the 1MW plant has not arrived, what makes you think that EcatX will have a commercial success?
    and when will it be officially put on the market?

    buon lavoro e grazie.

  • Aillas Troice

    @Fred
    No, I agree wholeheartedly that all sorts of ecat-powered engines are extremely important. I just don’t see why the world has to wait for Dr. Rossi and his small team to develop them. Once you have a power source, coupling it with an engine is a trivial engineering task. It’s just a matter of man-hours and R&D capital. Dr. Rossi has struck gold – that doesn’t mean he has to do the actual digging all by himself. Others can do the heavy lifting much more quickly and efficiently, while he can focus on the really complex stuff for which only he is qualified, i.e. the fundamentals of the Rossi process.

  • Fred

    @Aillas Troice:
    You are forgetting that an engine fueled by the E-Cat is of paramount importance.

  • WaltC

    Dear Andrea,
    – For the 1 year goal you have of testing engines for the E-Cat QX, is there a certain KW size range that you’re considering for testing with?
    – As a counter-consideration, will you also be experimenting with ThermoElectric Generators?
    – Is there any possibility that combining Direct Electric Output from an E-Cat QX plus ThermoElectric Generators might be competitive with heat engine generators that you’re considering?

    Thanks,
    WaltC

    Dear Andrea Rossi and readers,

    In the link below is a brief summary of the advantages of using Supercritical CO2 cycle to produce mechanical/electrical power.

    Perhaps it can be both scaled up to produce electrical power and scaled down to provide mechanical energy in a small package.

    https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2017/07/supercritical-co2-technology-will-get-proven-then-scaled-over-next-10-15-years.html

    There is still a lot of work that needs to be done.

    Super regards,

    Joseph Fine

  • Aillas Troice

    Dear Dr. Rossi,

    Please allow me to make a humble suggestion.

    The greatest value of your technology is the Rossi process itself, the actual means of generating energy by means of completely new physics. It is that process that you should get to market as soon as possible. But you seem to be devoting a great deal of time to trivial matters (like coupling the Rossi energy generator with an engine). These are mundane engineering tasks that will be done much more quickly and effectively by the international scientific/engineering community once you have licensed the Rossi process.

    What you are doing now is akin to having invented a magic chemical formula that cures all cancer – but instead if selling that formula to the highest bidder to get it to market as soon as possible (and start earning billions in license payments), you insist on building your own hospitals and making your own syringes (all with the very limited financial and engineering resources available to you) before patients can be treated with the magic formula.

    You have already done by far the most important bit of work. You have discovered and perfected the Rossi process. Now let others take it further, because surely millions of engineers working for the leading international companies (who are ready to spend hundreds of billions on the necessary R&D) will do a better job of it than you and the 20-30 staff you have at your disposal. In the meantime, you will be free to focus on perfecting the Rossi process, which is your most valuable area of expertise – instead of wasting your time on menial work (like looking for Stirling engine suppliers) that any student can do.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Ken:
    I have decided that within one year I want an engine. We will test all the possibilities, also the Stirling engine and decide which one suits better the E-Cat QX.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    JPR:
    Today a very important test, because we made an improvement. This will not affect the timing to complete the Sigma 5 path.
    Warm Regards,

  • Ken

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    So, you decided to couple the E-Cat with a Stirling engine?

  • Anonymous, thanks for your Link.
    However, I think you should tell the Readers, they will need a few PhD’s under their belt to understand it.
