A Mr. Rossi from the University of Bologna (seriously) has a patent pending on what could be called a "energy amplifier". It will convert a 400 watt input to a up to 15000 watt heat output via a reactor that some would call a cold fusion process. Essentially, nickle and hydrogen are converted to copper and heat by a catalyst, consuming very little of these elements.
A prototype is running. Remarkably, the humble Mr. Rossi does not fully understand the process, which involves subatomic partical physics, and physicists are tripping over themselves trying to fully understand it. Some are skeptical of course. Subatomic physics is not well understood. He is secretive pending the patent process, but has provided a demo.
Damn the torpedos of how it works, he is bringing it to production! He will have a 1 megawatt plant online for a customer in the USA by October 2011. He envisions industrial use only for it in the short term. If true this is huge, stay tuned.
Blog is best, but parts over my head:
