    Dear Andrea,

    Thank you for your condolences, very much appreciated. I enjoyed telling my dad about what was going on with the E-Cat. He was very interested in my report following the Latina presentation, and was pleased that it was such a success.

    Kind regards,

    Frank

    Dear Dr. Rossi,

    Since the E-Cat NGU will require a battery for startup, you might want to avoid lithium ion batteries as they can, as you know, be a fire hazard.

    Sodium Ion batteries are safe and have the advantage of being able to be discharged to zero and can be charged to 100%.

    If you must use lithium ion batteries, it would be helpful for shipping via aircraft if the battery is removeable.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your manufacturing setup process.

    Best Regards,

    Daniel G. Zavela

    Bill:
    Thank you for this link.
    Frank Acland is a person of great integrity and intellectual honesty. He read correctly my mind, this speech is sincere. In his eyes and words emerges a hint of the bereavement he is elaborating for the recent return to God of his father.
    Dear Frank: we all of the Ecat team offer you our sincere condolences,
    Andrea and all the Team of the Ecat

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Yet another application for NGU technology – Powering bulldozer

    Bulldozers can work up to 24 hours per day. Depending on the size, up to 700 kW of power may be needed. Not having to refuel, only change the operator, will make an NGU-powered bulldozer cost competitive. In addition, electric drives require less maintenance time than ICE.

    Dr. Rossi,

    With the increasing demand for electric power generation due to things like AI Server Farms and the winding down of fossil fuel plants, I think the ECat comes out very competitive relative to the proposed construction of new nuclear power plants.

    To highlight just a couple of key points of comparison–

    * Capital Cost:

    Nuclear Plant: $8.8 to $14.4 per watt (Statista)
    ECat: $2.5 per watt plus cost of inverter and cabinets

    * Site Information:

    Nuclear Plant: Large Installations, Typically remote locations with access to water and Transmission lines.
    ECat: Anywhere– Large/remote, Medium/E.g., in Substations, Small/at residences

    * Toxic Waste Byproducts:

    Nuclear Plant: Yes, dangerous, waste disposal is a long-term challenge
    ECat: No.

    * Ongoing Maintenance:

    Nuclear Plant: Major. 24/7 fully attended operation.
    ECat: Minimal. Automated attendance. Infrequent inspections.

    * Ownership:

    Nuclear Plant: Public Utility
    ECat: Anyone– Public Utility, 3rd party, Town or Homeowner

    ===

    Note: Steven Nicholes Karels’ suggestion of utilizing substations for ECat installations was truly masterful. It allows public utilities to do what they do best– provide capital for power generation and keep power running 24/7. It can also reduce vulnerability to wide-area power outages, reduce the need for transmission lines in fire and wind prone areas like California, and, because of the ECat’s wide-ranging scalability, allow power generation capacity to be upgraded faster and in smaller, less expensive, increments.

    ===

    Best Wishes,

    Dr Rossi,
    In the paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    I don’t firnd which is the “source mechanism” that starts the reverse entropy difference: can you help ?

    HI, DR Rossi
    From a question I ask over a year ago about using the 10 watt Ecat to power a lamp with DC bulb and my under standing was that there was a switch to turn the Ecat on the first time and then after that it would supply electricity to the bulb in lamp, if it was on and if it was off the Ecat was in a standby mode waiting for a load to be connect.
    Question , Is the battery only used to start the Eact the first time when after that it is either providing electricity do the connected load or is in a standby waiting for a load to be connected.
    So a simpler question, is the battery only used for the initial startup of the Ecat?

  • Steve D

    Dear Andrea Rossi

    A few questions/ confirmation about energy pathways.

    1) When the electron cluster / condensate forms, the energy of those electrons 

    a) is absorbed by electrons outside the cluster

    b) is absorbed by the ZPE field

    c) causes localised heating

    d) something else

    2) At the end of the cluster life electrons emerge once again energised. This energy is provided by

    a) the ZPE field

    b) nearby electrons

    c) something else

  • Andrea Rossi

    Rodney Nicholson:
    A. As I explained many times here, the applications of the Ecat system to cars will be possible only in collaboration with the specific car manufacturers, because modifications to their electronic systems are necessary to make the Ecat system compatible with the manufacturer BMS and, if any, A.I., that is/are proprietary for every manufacturer. For example, to make compatible the Ecat you watched in the Latina racetrack youtube video needed a particular and complex interface made by the owner of the Renault Twizy, to make the Ecat power the Renault battery by-passing the Renault’s BMS; the owner of that Twizy is an expert of electronic engineering and works at high level for a colossus of electronics.
    B. This would be true, provided the execution of the point A.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Hi Andrea:

    A QUESTION REGARDING ECAT-POWERED VEHICLE AVAILABLITY.

    Given the astonishing results of your Latina test:

    A. Can we expect that vehicles powered solely by Ecat units will be available for purchase by regular consumers for their transportation needs before the end of 2026?

    B. Am I correct in believing that – except in rare cases of a malfunction of some kind – these vehicles will never need to be connected to an external power source?

    Thank you for your response, for all the work you have been doing on this project over the last 35 years, and your willingness to answer so many questions!

    Sincerely,

    Rodney Nicholson.

  • Jaroslaw Bem

    @Ambrogio

    When you replicated the process described in http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    Are you obtained on the output, energy in the form of the heat or current?

    @Andrei Chiprasov
    The ZBW of electron speed is c, as described in
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    The answer about the speed of electron is impossible, because it is variable depending on many factors that also have mutations during the process; basically it depends on a series of integrals
    Ambrogio

  • Andrei Chiprasov

    @Ambrogio

    If you have replicated the process, you know the maximal speed of the electrons in the chamber.
    What is this speed?

  • Stephen

    @Ambrogio,
    Thanks for your reply. I wish I had the equipment and the e skills to do so. But I appreciate your reply I think it should encourage others who have the capability to do so too as the implication is clear the necessary information is there. It’s good to hear that you had success, each small affirmation like that gives us real hope.
    Best Regards
    Stephen.

  • Ambrogio

    @Stephen
    To replicate the experiment of Rossi I just followed suit the instructions on the paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    You too can do it: just study carefully the par. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

    Koen Vandewalle:
    We have addressed this problem, but it will remain confidential until we will start the deliveries,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Koen Vandewalle

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    While we eagerly await the good news that E-Cat production is ready for delivery, we’d love to keep the conversation alive here on JONP. It’s a wonderful way to stay connected and ensure your well-being and daily updates continue to reassure us all.

    If you’re able to answer a somewhat technical question: What chemistry is the rechargeable battery in the E-Cat based on?

    Achieving 100,000 hours of operation with frequent on-off cycles must place significant demands on batteries. Are you designing these batteries to be user-replaceable by customers, or are you developing a proprietary system capable of enduring 100,000 hours and potentially millions of start-stop cycles under all conditions?

    From my perspective, the first commercial units may very well have minor teething issues or weaknesses—perfection is, after all, a never-ending journey.

    Kind regards,
    Koen

  • Mario

    I) Does the 100 Watt ECAT come with its own SSM battery or we need to order it

    II) If using three 100 Watt ECAT in series do i need one SSM battery for all (in parallel) or one for each.

    III) Did you solve the problem of the batteries catching fire or you have to give some advice about it

    Thank you : Mario

  • Stephen

    @Ambrogio
    I notice that you mentioned a number of times some success in your experiments in replicating the Rossi- process. I got the impression that you made progress with it. I wonder if it would be possible for you to expand a bit on this with some data .
    Thanks and best regards

    Dr Rossi,
    The paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interactions
    has many important references, not easy to read, though. Can you suggest the three more important to help understand the background of the paper ?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Ambrogio:
    Bravo !

    Dr. Rossi,

    Have Productization & Manufacturability experts from your new partner begun working closely with your team?

    Also, have you given any thought to how your 1kW (or larger) module might be used in a Rack-mount configuration? If it could be made to work, it could lend itself naturally to server-farm use and to simpler construction of 1mW E-Cat systems.

    Best Wishes,
    WaltC

  • Italo R.

    Dr. Rossi,

    with the previous partner it was hypothesized that deliveries would begin around the middle of this year.

    Can you confirm now this hypothesis or do we necessarily have to wait until the end of the year?

    Best Regards,
    Italo R.

  • Dear Andrea, after the latest events I am following your blog more carefully than usual, hoping to catch some news on production updates, even though I know that I will have to wait patiently. I ask you, and I know I am interpreting the wishes of all your followers, could you write on the blog at least a “monthly update”, as far as possible, on the situation?
    Neri

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    Whan you begin mass production, will manufacturing begin in all three locations simultaneously, or will will it start in one location only?

    Best regards,

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Relative to airplane travel, can the NGU Power Generator be shipped or carried on an airplane/airliner if it is int the unpowered condition?

  • Lucio Martini

    Dear Eng Rossi,
    I ask myself a highly rhetorical question, namely:
    “If TESLA used its e-cat, it would be in crisis”?
