    P,

    A heat pump is a very efficient mechanism for both heating and cooling a house. I had one installed in my son’s Florida house. Unfortunately, as I live in New Hampshire, it is too cold here for a heat pump to work efficiently (for heating). So if you live in a warm climate, it makes more sense to move the heat in or out of your home than to generate heat or to generate heat for electricity and then for cooling your home. Bottomline: It is generally more energy efficient to move the heat around than to generate it.

    Dr. Rossi,

    I believe the site is not updated yet.
    The messages of day 22 are still missing.

    Best Regards,

    Gerard McEk:
    He,he,he…no, the Ecat SK of the recorded video that will be shown in operation during the direct streaming on http://www.ecatskdemo.com is not the same that is now hidden under the veil like a ghost and that will be unveiled at the beginning of the direct streaming: this one will be shown and described in a studio and will not be in operation. You will see two E-Cat SK then, one in operation and one in the show room of the above mentioned website.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.
    P.S.
    Ghosts don’t evaporate

    Dear Andrea,
    I thought you would demonstrate an E-Cat heating a the factory hall of your partner or a customer. If so, I would assume the cloak under which the E-Cat is now covered (on http://www.ecatskdemo.com/) should be evaporated by now, or not?
    What is wrong in my thinking?
    Thanks, kind regards, Gerard

  • P

    Dear Dr. Rossi
    I need to change the heat source for my house in a few years. Should I wait for E-CAT domestic or should I invest in a heat pump that my neighbors do?
    Best regards
    P
    P.S. Thank you Steven N. Karels for your calculations regarding my previous question about replacing future coal-fired power plants.

    Dear Andrea

    This forgotten 1996 interview with M. Fleischmann seems illuminating

    https://www.infinite-energy.com/iemagazine/issue11/fleishmann2.html

    T: I’m happy to say I’m at least beginning to make some progress in the direction of not understanding…

    F: Well, you have worked in this field, haven’t you. Just think of the space charge around a cathode, you understand that?

    T: Well I must admit, to be honest, I’ve rather tended to take things like the thermionic diode pretty much for granted.

    F: Well, before our next meeting try to tell me whether you understand the space charge around a cathode.

    Dr. Rossi:

    After your presentation on 31 January, will privately owned businesses, such as automobile repair shops, be able to purchase heat from Leonardo to warm their facilities with the resulting cost savings?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N. Karels:
    I agree.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Sven:
    Thank you for your suggestions.

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    I am very anxious to watch the historic presentation of the first industrial application of the LENR. I read everyday on http://www.ecatskdemo.com hoping not to read that it has been scratched for some reason.
    God bless you,
    Melissa

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    I assume, when clients ask what fuel is used, the environmental impact of using eCat technology, etc., you will tell them:

    1. The fuel is a trade secret, or similar statement
    2. There is no environmental pollution due to refueling.
    3. No emitted radiation higher than normal background radiation levels.
    4. In summary, other than heat, no environmental impact to operating the eCat.

    If all the above is correct, then potential clients have all necessary assurances, in my opinion.

  • Sven

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Your answer “my IT guys say so” makes me a bit worried.
    Public live streaming on the web demands a heavy and expensive setup if you should safely reach a very large audience.
    Are you using YouTube Live function behind your own domain?
    If not I really suggest you reconsider, there is still a good time to change.
    YouTube Live is easy and has all the infrastructure to meet any demand for viewing while keeping out all possible attacks from your opponents.

    Best Regards and Good Luck on January 31.

    MS:
    Good question.
    With a screen of 16″ the view of the plasma will be in real dimensions.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • MS

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi
    During the presentation that we will watch on http://www.ecatskdemo.com will you will show us the plasma. Obviously the dimensions we will see will depend on the dimension of the computer’s screen. Do you know many inches of screen will be necessary to see the plasma in its real dimension?
    Thank you if you can answer.

    Raffaele Bongo:
    So far it is very reliable and stable.

    TheFutureIsNow:
    1- this is not a question, this is an insult
    2- I already did in this blog
    3- the clients are interested only to the cost of the energy, they buy energy, not licenses or plants
    4- thank you for the suggestion
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Dear Andrea,

    1) Do you pledge that the pre-recorded video that is broadcast will not be manipulated or edited in anyway whatsoever? In other words, for the segments shown, the viewer will see the same exact scene (within the limits of the camera equipment) that a person on site would have seen with the naked eye.

    2) Will you reveal for how long the SK unit demonstrated and/or other units have been operating without a re-fill or addition of hydrogen or other fuels?

    3) If the purpose of this presentation is to attract clients, I believe that they would like to know what elements of fuel are being used in a device that is allegedly producing enormous energy from nuclear reactions. Will you reveal, with no details on proportions or processing, all components in the plasma?

    4) Will you present the details of your plan to ensure that the QX/SK proliferates around the world as rapidly as possible? For example, to have an immediate, significant benefit, millions of units will need to be manufactured within the coming year.

  • Raffaele Bongo

    Hello A. Rossi

    Your E-Cat has been running for two months now at your client’s.

    Is its operation in line with your expectations or you had good or bad surprises requiring some adjustments?

    I wish great success to your future presentation of January 31st
    Best regards
    Raffaele

    Dear Andrea,
    Sorry for the unconveniance, my IPad didn’t warn for any phishing.
    The YouTube link shows two volleyball teams in which one player in white clothings does the most fabulous savings to keep his team in the game. It is spectacular how they made it.
    I thought that it must be you that guy in white, preparing for the presentation on 1/31.
    I just hope my IPad isn’t infected.
    Good presentation, kind regards, Gerard.

    Our firewall says that link contains a malware.
    I cancelled the link to protect us and our Readers.
    I suggest you to eliminate it from your computer ASAP.
    It appears to be a fishing device.

    Dear Andrea,
    I juist want to ask, and don’t ly to me, are you this white guy?
    I guess you are preparing for the demo…
    [LINK DELETED BECAUSE CONTAINS A VIRUS]
    I must say, you do it quite thoroughly!
    Kind regards, Gerard

    Dear Dr. Andrea Rossi.
    I look forward to the presentation on January 31.
    A very big request for the video player version to have the function of subtitles, with a built-in translator.
    I (and probably very many) find it difficult to perceive English by ear.
    Thank you very much.
    Do not allow discrimination on the basis of language! (joke).
    I wish you success! I wish a full house in the network during the presentation and a queue of customers after.

    Dear Angelo V.,

    it is not good idea: masmedia (press, TV etc.) at such important event as presentation of stunning breakthrough new clear technology – new energy device.

    If such masmedia was involved, there hundreds thousands companies would be prepare for next era. They stop waste investment into obsolete dirty tech (coal, oil etc.) and save a few hundreds billion immediately.

    This is BAD, BAD and BAD. It is far better doing such important presentation without masmedia. Some 1000 companies is already aware of Dr. Rossi tech and these hundreds thousands other companies must be keep in IGNORANCE, so they may continue to invest in obsolete tech. In such way these waste investment may be in 300-900 Billion per year. I love such attitude.

    Roughly one third of these owners of mid and smaller companies in IGNORANCE mode will later conduct suicide, because they will owe these wasted money, wasted into obsolete tech and will capable to compete against these, who stopped investment into old tech soon enough.

    Do You know better scenario for high quality drama?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Kim:
    I prefer not to anticipate what we will do.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Angelo V.:
    We sell the heat to our Customers. They can do in their factories what they want. The sole restriction we put is that they cannot open the black boxes of the Ecat. Particular agreements can be made in specific situations, but a Customer is the sole sovereign of his concern.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Dear Andrea,
    are you already using standard advertising channels (internet, media, social) to publicize your energy supply?
    I have read that potential buyers must meet many requirements in order to become your customers, but in addition to a discount on the energy market price, what does you offer them? Are they involved in some sort of mission against global pollution or is only an economic deal?
    Will future customers be free to publicly express their judgment on the service/product received?

    Best regards
    Angelo V.

    Jim Rosenbur,

    If AR sells heat to his customers, then it should not matter whether the internal reactors are an ensemble of 20kW or 100kW reactors. It may make a difference to AR in terms of his cost model but I assume it will be transparent to the customer who is only buying heat.

  • Kim

    Dear Dr Rossi:
    Will you also show a measurement made by means of the spectrometer, that failed in Stockholm on November 2017 due to the light emitted from the big screen?
    Thanks if you can answer,
    Cheers
    Kim

  • Andrea Rossi

    Bernie Morrissey:
    It depends on the specific situations.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Jim Rosenbur:
    The 100 kW Ecat is far from being ready to be installed to sell heat to our Customers.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Jim Rosenbur

    Dr Rossi,
    if you discuss the 100 kW Ecat at the event of the end of January, do you think customers will be tempted to delay orders for the 20 kW units?

  • Steven N. Karels

    P,

    Given your desired target goal of replacing 259GW of electrical power generating plants, it seems doable to me (and perhaps to AR).

    A 1GW electrical power plant will require 2.5GW of thermal power assuming a Carnot efficiency of 40% (modern power plants are reporting a 40 – 45% efficiency)

    Assuming the 100kW eCat reactor is successful, then a 1GW electrical power plant will require 25,000 of the 100kW eCat reactors.

    To meet your target of 259GW, a total of about 6.5 million reactors will be needed. The transition time (changing coal to LENR) will likely be 10 to 20 years so the average production requirement will be between 300,000 and 700,000 units per year, or roughly one new reactor every minute.

    If the eCat works and if high yield, automated production can be achieved, I think it is doable.

  • Bernie Morrissey

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    How long will it take from when you get an order for an
    E-Cat SK until it is delivered on site.

    Thanks
    Bernie Morrissey
