    How much direct electricity will the small modules produce?

  • fyodor

    Mr. Rossi

    If the E-Cat X is moving to commercialization it possible yet to give any information about the direct electrical performance of the E-Cat X? For example, how much direct electrical energy can you pull from a unit of 1KW overall power?

    Thank you for taking the time to answer my question

    Dear Andrea Rossi,
    If tomorrow someone publishes on internet a precise recipe allowing everyone on the planet to build something similar to a mini e-cat in his garage, 100% working, would this affect negatively your projects or would this give them an extra positive push?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Frank Acland:
    In progress. The report of the ERV will help a lot, if the results will be positive, because we had a safe operation for 352 days, 24/7. Results after such a long time of tests leave no doubts, because the period is too long to doubt about the results. The safety issues, exploited by top level specialists, will help a lot.
    I think the results from the test, if positive, will accelerate the certification for the domestic apparatus, but, of course, this is just my opinion, for the worth it can be granted…
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    How is progress going towards safety certification for domestic E-cats?

    Many thanks,

    Frank Acland

  • Andrea Rossi

    Tyron:
    No, the production line of the 1 MW industrial low temperature E-Cats will be totally independent from the R&D on the E-Cat X, as well as its commercial strategy.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    The E-Cat X are operating well. Now I am focused exclusively on it, during this “period of grace” between the end of the 1 MW E-Cat test end and the dlivery of the report by the ERV.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Rino:
    Yes. The measurements have been made by top level specialists of the matter. The measurements confirmed that no ionizing radiations have been emitted from the reactors toward the outside of them.
    Warm Regards,

  • Andrea Rossi

    JJE:
    You are right. The selection will have to be made in the specific sites of interest, as we did so far.

    Larry Powercom LLC:
    Thank you for the information.
    Warm Regards,

  • Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    Our mutual friend, Robert Curto has been keeping me informed over the past couple of years regarding E-Cat.
    I’ve been quietly watching from the sidelines and praying for your success with E-Cat.
    It appears you are getting close to being able to mass produce the final product(s).
    With that said, I would like to officially introduce my Electrical Contracting business to you located here in S Florida, USA.
    My company is :
    Powercom, llc.
    2511 NW 16 Lane #8
    Pompano Beach, F. 33064
    State Certified Electrical Contractor License #13005530

    Please check us out at http://www.myflorida.com
    There you will see we are fully licensed, insured and have ZERO complaints, judgements, liens or anything of that nature. I intende to keep our status quot in that regard.

    We are extremely versed in Power,Light and Low Voltage systems.
    Our Low Voltage Division is growing exponentially as well as our LED Lighting Division.
    It appears your product coupled with our Products and services would possibly become well matched and congruent with a lucrative, long term business relationship.
    As you are probably aware, LED Lighting is sweeping the world as we type. This reduces the loads of Incandescent and Gas Lamp Lighting to around 25%-30%.
    Not only does LED lighting substantially lower a customer’s monthly Electric bills, It greatly reduces the electrical load creating a lower demand.

    We are currently outgrowing our office warehouse space and preparing to move to a larger facility this year.
    It would be my pleasure to offer our services and speak with you or your marketing colleagues to discuss future potential in the United States.
    Not only would we consider a Distribution Center in S Florida to house, sell and install from, I would consider other locations as well i.e. Orlando (Central Florida), Atlanta, GA., Virginia, Washington, New York and any other areas that may have potential for the installations of E-Cat systems.

    We have partner companies across the US and can service any area at any time.

    Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for your reply,
    Best Regards,
    Larry Stamper

  • JJE

    Mr. Rossi,

    I’m glad to hear that you’re almost ready for mass production of your E-Cat (F9). But we will need specialized technicians for installation. What are your plans for it?

    Thank you,

    JJE

  • Rino

    Dr Andrea Rossi,
    Have been made measurements of the radiations outside the containers of the 1 MW plant, to be sure that there are not radioactive emissions?

    Dr Joseph Fine:
    It is impossible for me now to give the characteristics of the E-Cat X, because we still are in a preliminary R&D phase.
    This having been said, I can add that we will make low energy modules, to be able to assemble systems able to cover all the specter of the possible utilizations; the temperature is not an issue, since the energy is used by means of heat exchangers, so that the external T can be modulate .
    We also are resolving the issue of the switch on/off in short time.
    Yes, the new laboratory is well dimensioned.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Joseph Fine

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Will the E-Cat X, or a suitable variant, be the type that would be installed for home use or for use by small business?

    Or does that marketplace require use of the present generation of E-Cats?

    I don’t completely remember the specifications for this product (assuming regulators will begin to permit installations). I think the original home system specs. were that it would be electrically heated (or possibly natural gas-driven), produce hot water at approx 90-110 deg C for at least 6 months before “recharging”. I think the ratings were about 10 to 15 kW-Thermal. (And I think the COP was approximately 6.) I also recall that start-up and shut down times were as much as one or two hours. (Most people would not want to wait two hours for the heat to come up!)

    Could an E-Cat X device operate at low (100 deg C) temperatures, and if so, would it be possible for it not only to run for 6 months but even longer? Have you tried operating a low temperature E-Cat? And if so, can the heat output be adjusted in ten to twenty minutes?

    In other words, Residence*/Small business devices would be unlikely to operate at 1000+ degrees C., or use high pressure systems in order to comply with safety regs etc. Likewise, it is somewhat unlikely to produce electricity, although I would be happy to be wrong about this.

    Could an E-Cat X type system operate at ‘only’ 100-150 degrees C?

    Have you thought about how to configure/design/produce a multiple system (10-15) of 1-kW systems?

    Also, do you have much more space in your new Lab?

    Best regards,

    Joseph Fine

  • Yuri

    Dear Andrea Rossi,
    Do you think that any of the competitors of yours will be able to make something working, based on the information you have in your “library”?

  • rodolfo

    Dr Andrea Rossi,
    Can we have an update of the E-Cat X ?
    Cheers,
    Rodolfo

  • Tyron

    Mr Rossi,
    Is the E-Cat X an excuse to delay again the commercialization of the E-Cat for other 2 years? I never have seen as much delay as it is happening with your ecats.
    Sceptic regards,
    Tyron

  • Andrea Rossi

    Kathleen:
    Yes, we have a team of specialists dedicated to this job. I never comment the work of our competitors, but monitor them carefully to check what they do and to understand what they eventually can do. We have a library pretty complete about this issue and we keep it constantly updated.
    Warm Regards,

  • Robert Curto

    Dr. Rossi, with God as your Security Guard you are in good hands.
    Plus everyone knows that doing harm to you would not stop your Invention
    from coming to the World.
    It is on Track and no one, no matter how Evil can stop it.
    Robert Curto
    P.S. Except of course F9, and even that will soon RIP.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Rod:
    Thank you for your concern.
    About my health: after one year working 16-18 hours per day from 5-6 p.m. to 9-10 a.m., spending the night in the plant I paid a price and now I am making a series of check up, but so far no substantial damages have emerged, even if I lost much weight. Now I have the time to make proper visits and therapies that I wanted not to afford before, not to compromise my presence in the plant, that was necessary: when I had hernia surgery in July, few hours after the surgery I was inside the plant filled up with strong pain killers… About my personal security, the factory I work in has security, but, substantially, my idea is quite simple: if God wants me to go on with my work, nobody can stop me, otherwise I will be stopped anyway, it doesn’t matter who will be the one with the “bacula”.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Dear Dr. Andrea Rossi,

    I recently came upon your ECAT and ECAT-X invention recently, and am quite excited about its unlimited potential! For me, my children, and the rest of the world, I hope that the ERV report due in about a month will post positive results and you’ll be able to move forward revolutionizing just about all aspects of everyone’s life. Like my favorite basketball player, Stephen Curry, you are changing the way the game is played! LOL 🙂

    My concern is about your safety and health. I can imagine that there are many individuals, industries, and even countries that hope that your invention and dreams will not succeed. Whether they are skeptics, jealous colleagues, or entities that deem you as a threat, there is always potential of someone determined to do you harm.

    I hate to be morbid, but my question is ‘are you taking precautions to protect both your safety and health, and even your intellectual property and knowledge?’You, your inventions, and your ideas are too important to the world.

    Good to luck to you!

    With warm regards,
    –Rod

  • Vivienne

    Dear Andrea,
    Can you explain which are the Countries Industrial Heat is licensed for ?

    Dear Andrea,
    Have you been studying thermophotovoltaic (heat to light to electricity) in order to increase the electric power output from the E-Cat X ?

    @ lookmoo

    I bet when the Ecat will be commercialized (F9) then lobbyists for the fossil fuel industry will claim that this new energy source will cause an economic recession because the global economy as is significantly reliant on fossil fuels (80% of primary energy supply) and related extractive industries. I have already heard about this potential “fossil fuel bubble”, but the point is that policy-makers have all levers available to make the transition smooth. But I bet my 10$ that we will hear about this recession argument

  • tuder

    Caro Dottore,
    it is interesting to have you reminding us the latin etymology of “imbecile”.
    To save some time to readers which might be searching in online dictionaries, the adjective imbecillis is composed of the two latin words “in” which means ‘without’ and “baculum” which means ‘stick’.
    So the original meaning of “imbecillis” was ‘weak’, ‘feeble’ ‘fragile’, but also: ‘without authority or power’, ‘coward’, ‘mean’, and funny enough ‘easily digestable’.

    Btw, AD MAIORA!

  • Gerard McEk

    Dear Andrea,
    I have some questions if I may, all assuming F9 = positive.
    1- You said that IH is licensed to produce E-cats for the Americas and China. Does that also include E-cat X’s (in the future)?
    2- Is it right to assume that the rest of the world will be supplied by the Leonardo Company?
    3- I believe you mentioned that Sweden will have a production plant for Europe. Do you intend to produce E-cats at more locations in Europe and Asia?
    4- You work strongly together with a jet specialist. Do you expect to test an E-cat jet this year?
    Thanks and kind regards, Gerard

  • Andrea Rossi

    William:
    Also China has been licensed to Industrial Heat.
    For any commercial and industrial issue related to the E-Cat in China you must contact Industrial Heat:

  • Andrea Rossi

    Dr Joseph Fine:
    The E-Cat X basically is based on the same patent of the E-Cat. The results will not affect the theoretical research, they will tell us if we are on the right direction or if we have to change.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    LookMoo:
    Nobody has tried to stop us so far, apart from a bunch of imbeciles (8 in total, with several tens of pseudonyms) moved by envy more than by real business.
    When we will encounter any problem like you say, we will analyse it and deal with it. I have better things to do than considering non existent problems. If the E-Cat will not succeed (which is possible), this will be for my shortcomings, not for lobbies or for a bunch of imbeciles ( “imbecile” is not an insult, just the description of a status, from the Latin “imbacula”).
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    K.:
    No, the measurements have been calorimetric, 24 hours per day, 352 days of operation.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Ken:
    The E-Cat’s industrial version will see expanding its commercialization independently from the E-Cat X if the results of the 352 days test will be positive ( remember that the results could also be negative). We have to wait about one month now for the final report of the ERV.
    The E-Cat X so far is in an R&D phase, which is very promising, but it is not yet a product. I am very optimistic about the fact that one industrial E-Cat X will be sold and put in operation within 2016, but I cannot guarantee it, because the R&D we are making could receive bad surprises that could delay the program.
    These two lines of production are independent and also the Teams dedicated to them are different and work in different locations, so far.
    The state of the art in this very moment is that both the E-Cat and the E-Cat X could fail. Nonetheless, we are working as hard as we can not to fail, but, again, much work has still to be done.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • William

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi,
    We are interested to buy a license to distribute the E-Cats in a particular part of China where we have good bases.
    Are you interested? If yes, how can we meet you?
    Thanks,
    William Coventry

  • Ken

    Dr Andrea Rossi:
    Somebody has said that the E-Cat X is an escape you are using to delay again the commercialization of a product in the market. This because the E-Cat ( not X ) doesn’t work.
    What do you answer?
    Regards,
    Ken

  • K.

    Dear Andrea Rossi:
    The measurements of efficiency in the 1 MW E-Cat have been made using the Boltzmann equation for the IR with a thermochamber as it happened in the Lugano test ?
    Thank you,
    K.
