In the above video you can see the US government’s idea of energy policy. Energy Secretary Dr. Chu talking about white roofs. He has been silent on the Energy Catalyzer.
The United States Department of Energy appears to be showing absolutely no interest in the Energy Catalyzer. As far as I know nobody from the Department, which is supposed to be working to give America “energy independence,” has shown no interest in a device that can do just that: Andrea Rossi’s Energy Catalyzer.
Nobody from the Department was apparently present at Defkalion’s ground breaking press conference last month where it was revealed that the Energy Catlyzer is being used for industrial purposes in Greece right now. The Secretary of Energy, Dr. Steven Chu, who is supposed to be a scientist did not show up nor did anybody who said he was a representative of the Department. The only representative of a great power who attended was Huarard Chen who introduced himself as the Deputy Director of the China Research Center for Public Policy a Think Tank that is apparently part of the Chinese government.
Now if the Energy Department is what it claims to be, it should welcome the Energy Catalyzer but it might not. The Energy Catalyzer threatens the billions of dollars in funding the Department gets from American taxpayers. It was developed by a private individual with his own money. It is being readied for commercialization with private money.
My guess is that the bureaucrats at the Energy Department and the giant National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado are afraid for their jobs. The US is in the middle of a budget crisis and Republicans in Congress are already talking about cutting renewable energy funding. The last thing they want is to acknowledge that a private inventor did what they could not.
US Secretary of Energy Dr. Steven Chu
The US government is certainly aware of the Energy Catalyzer’s existence. Andrea Rossi has worked for it and been awarded federal contracts before. Rossi himself has said uniformed US Naval officers have witnessed an e-cat demonstration.
The good thing is that there is no way the Energy Department can ignore or cover up something like the Energy Catalyzer. Sooner or later the mainstream media will wake up to it. When that happens, Dr. Chu and his advisers are going to have a lot to answer for.
In his last statement on the Energy Department’s website Dr. Chu praised UPS for putting a white roof on a delivery van to reduce cooling costs. As an American taxpayer I have to wonder what is going on at the Department of Energy. The national official in charge of “Energy policy” is more interested in the roofs of delivery trucks than the most important new source of energy since oil.
Something tells me, Dr. Chu isn’t going to have his job much longer. Nor will a lot of people at the Department of Energy when Congress finally learns about the Energy Catalyzer.
Looks like e-Cat is bogus. If you see the video, where Rossi demonstrates e-Cat, the system is continuously drawing sufficient electricity from the power line to produce the steam at just above boiling point (at the rate it produces). But at a later point he explains that the steam is not visible because of the “high temperature”. I can’t believe some one who have not demonstrated his/their “invention” is getting away with all this attention. Experimental scientists (which I used to be one) know how hard it is and how much data you have to present to get recognition of other scientists for even relatively simple facts you discover.
At this extreme limit, This invention is so dangerous for human it could destroy us or give us paradise. Imagine the freedom, machines provide us with every things we need, no need for monney as long as you have energy you could transform every things right there,(in small comuninty connect to internets).
This will cause a tsunami in technologie for the ”Society” and for the system of money. Since we are not equal as humains the shift of power will go toward average pepoles. Also the jobs will lower so that pepole will work for themself or the perstige or for helping or for what ever reasons. The bascis comodity of life will be soon automated and will cost almost nothing if nothing. The present systems resist that tendency because it need worker to pay and… ( control…). With a ecat the size of a suit case you coudl live in a campign tent year round with electricity by any temperature and be verry confortable. You will also have a car build for at leat 35 years or more with almost no maintenance. But probably we will fly out in the air with that kind of cheap energy. This thecnology will favore socialism but not capitalist. That is why for them it is apocalipse now! This invention will stop ”programed obsolessence” in our goods.
This invention will mark an erra. Unless they try to hide this invention , but i dont think so.

pierre,
Nice to meet you, somebody capable of thinking, very rare on these blogs.
I cannot see how they can hide this. Note they would have to smart enough to know what it is to hide it. Of course it will make a lot of people including Andrea Rossi a lot of money so it won’t end the money. Pierre you’re right though the possibilities of this are staggering and they’ll bring about a lot of changes to the present system. Although I think you’re wrong this will favor capitalism over socialism because it will erode central control which is what socialism is all about. Under a planned socialist system something like e-cat would be impossible. Rossi is free to develop because of the resources given him by capitalism. Socialist central planners will be a lot more scared of this than capitalists will.
At last incompetent science, administrators and (nothing beyond known science)peer review journals are being side-stepped and left in their own crazy little world of denial and stagnation.
The only two areas of science moving are drugs and quantum computers one for insane profits, the other after being ridiculed for years by the same scientific “experts”, because instant classical code breaking is certain.
The sooner all science becomes open, like Rossi then real progress can start to be made in all areas, instead of every closed-mind shouting it cannot be done, lets talk about the Carnot Cycle where I feel safe.
You’re right George Science needs to become more open. I think we’re going to see incredible progress in coming decades because science will become free and open again like it was in the late 19th century when men like Edison and Tesla changed the world.
What I mean by society it is not capitalisme or socialism or com…
This invention, the e-cat, will change society in a way I can not predict, because this never happend at that scale in the world before. Since internet exist, these two technologies will change our social structure in a new one after some adaptations (hopefully short and orderely). It will be a systems base on the real needs of humans.
Capitalist exist because mens have to redistribute the small resources amog us and the most efficient way to do developpement it is capitalist. The cost in humans is the price.
For communists the results is even worst as we saw in the u.s.s.r.
But with abundant energy those systems will be tear down I think.
Small community is the best size. They will be almost autonomus, they will be abondant and they will all communicate throught internet for knowledge and whatever form of trade or services they see fit. Our forces will become cooperative. City will become a place of travelers and most of us could live in nature with space more wide with more confort. When the planet will be feed and care for all humans then I dont see the need of invasion from a neibourg country with the same life style. Moreover there will be so much to do for exploration everywere that it won’t be booring.
So it is verry hard to say what that tecnology will bring us with its energy. But for those who will have noting to do, then you will be able to travel and learn.
Thank Jenni and Georges hants for you comments

I agree I think this will benefit smaller communities by eliminating the need for large scale infrastructure and I also agree with you that it will undermine a lot of the causes of war. Note of course that people prone on violence will always find an excuse for it no matter how abundant resources become. I really hope e-cat eliminates a lot of the massive bureaucracies that cause so much of the world’s problems. E-cat will also eliminate the profit in oil which finances tyrannical governments like the ones in Libya and Saudi Arabia.
It is no surprise that advances in science would come from the rational pursuit of an individual rather by command from an organization that funds itself not by the fruits of it’s labor, but by stealing money from others in the altruistic claim that they fo it not for the betterment of themselves but out of the selfless benefit to society. That socialist BS does not advance science and science cannot be advanced by government. Science is predicated by reason not by force, which is the purpose of government.
Good point. It is interesting to note though that other US government agencies such as NASA and the Navy are interested in low energy nuclear reaction and doing research on it. Nice to here from you. Part of the problem maybe that the scientific establishment is scared of the words Cold Fusion and the Department of Energy is wedded to that establishment. I wonder what Dr. Chu will think when President Obama hands Andrea Rossi the Congressional Medal of Freedom and calls him a great man.

Double Negative: Please write,
“nobody from the Department, which is supposed to be working to give America “energy independence”, has shown any interest in a device that can do just that:”
Otherwise great article. Note however that AMPENERGO is made up of people from the Energy Department that do believe it is worth investing in.
And a lot of other people do too.
Interesting point. I might note that AmpEnergo’s most visible connection to the Energy Department is Robert Gentile who was a secretary in a past administration. I’m sure there are many individual scientists and technicians in the Energy Department who do believe in Cold Fusion and would love to work on it but cannot because they have bills to pay and families to feed. Generally, real progress comes from individual inventors and entrepreneurs with nothing to lose and no political agendas to worry about such as Andrea Rossi. Note these people are often refugees from large bureaucracies like the DOE who get fed up with Red Tape and politics. Thanks for pointing out the error. I definitely think e-cat is worth investing in. I have a feeling a lot of big guns on Wall Street and the city of London do as well.
