The following post has been submitted by Axil Axil. I would like to interest some mechanically inclined LENR inventor into replicating the Hyde generator. This device is unlike any LENR device that I have ever encountered. It is based on rotation producing EVOs. I have some ideas about configuring a small battery powered device with […]

EU Parliament Vote Allows Nuclear and Natural Gas to be Considered ‘Green’ Energy
A vote took place in the European parliament yesterday about which kinds of energy projects could be available for EU funding in its effort to decarbonize its economy. The parliament voted not to block both nuclear energy and natural gas from being funded if they were part of a move to transition away from higher-carbon […]
Garett Moddel Update – Devices Not Reliable Over Time
Thanks to Barry Mead for posting the following comment regarding the work of Garett Moddel who claims that energy can be directly harvested from the vacuum using specially designed diodes that employ the Casimir effect. I sent emails to Garett Moddel and he confirmed that the primary thing holding up the mass production of this […]

Video: “The Light of Life” (Michael Clarage)
Thanks to John Oman for posting a link to this new video titled “The Light of Life” made by Michael Clarage, lead scientist of the SAFIRE Project. He discusses research that shows that living cells emit light, and that this light can change the behavior of other cells. Some examples include the fact that seeds […]
Freeze-Thaw Molten Source Battery for Energy Storage
Here’s an article from the Physics World website about a new approach to energy storage which is one of the biggest challenge facing the effort to move the electric grid to be powered by mostly renewable sources of electricity: https://physicsworld.com/a/freeze-thaw-battery-could-help-store-solar-and-wind-energy/ A battery that “freezes” its stored chemical energy for several months has been developed by […]
