Our organization is focused around the following areas of need:

  - Energy and Beyond: The control of nuclear fusion would solve the worlds energy problems, and then some! But fusion is surprisingly under-explored.
  - Policy: Current fusion policy is limiting and needs to be changed to spur more effective exploration.
  - Research Support: Researchers need our support as they pursue fusion.
  - Reframing Fusion: Fusion in general gets a bad rap. We need to change the way people relate to it.
  - Pro Fusion Culture We need to be the fusion generation!
  - Networking: It's not just nuclei that need to fuse - we need to work better together for our goals.
  - Netcentric Platform: We need a netcentric platform (website + organization) to better collaborate in the pursuit of fusion.
  - Celebration: We need to celebrate the bold exploration! One day, we'll celebrate the outcome." ... more

BlackLight Power

"BlackLight Power, Inc. Dr. Randell Mills The "Company" is a Delaware corporation based in East Windsor, New Jersey, believes it has developed a new hydrogen chemical process that generates power, plasma, and a vast class of new compositions of matter. Specifically, the Company has designed and tested a new proprietary energy-producing chemical process. The Company has developed high-power-density, high-temperature, hydrogen gas cells that produce power of orders of magnitude greater than that of the combustion of hydrogen and at temperatures (1200 ºF to 2200 ºF) and power densities equal to those of many electric power plants (approximately 100 mW/cm3). The power may be in the form of a plasma, a hot ionized glowing gas, which the Company believes may be converted directly to electricity (...)

BlackLight Process

BlackLight Power, Inc. has created a potentially commercially competitive, nonpolluting new primary source of energy that forms a prior undiscovered form of hydrogen called "hydrino" which is very likely the identity of the dark matter of the universe. This BlackLight Process of releasing chemical energy from hydrogen generates power either as electricity or heat with power densities and performance comparable to those of batteries and conventional central power plants, respectively. The only consumable, the hydrogen fuel, is obtainable from water due to the enormous net energy release relative to combustion. Two hundred times more energy and power is released per H2-forming hydrino than forming water. Thus, water can be used as the stored hydrogen, generated on demand using 0.5% of the electrical output at a nominal consumption rate of one-millionth of a liter per second per kilowatt electric power. Moreover, molecular hydrino gas and novel hydrogen compounds with potential commercial applications are the by-products. The former is very stable and self-vents from the atmosphere to space due to its high buoyancy and mobility. The BlackLight Process offers a potentially efficient, clean, and versatile energy source. Initial power applications of its technology are on-site residential and commercial electric power production. The Company has developed three systems to generate electricity powered by forming hydrinos: one electrochemical and two thermal systems." ... more

"ECAT Technology

The ECAT will revolutionize energy production as we know it. The energy generated by an ECAT has the following features:

  - High Energy Density Fuel (200 000 times oil)
  - Low Fuel Costs (1kg Ni has energy equivalence of 200 000kg oil)
  - Low Operation and Maintenance Costs (the modular design admits minimal maintenance)
  - Minimal Fuel Transport Cost (only 2 refuelings/year under continous run)
  - Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions
  - Zero Noise (only noise from auxilliary products <50dB)

The process that makes this possible is called Cold Fusion or Low Energy Nuclear Reaction (LENR). Nickel is fused with Hydrogen and transmutes into copper. This is an exothermal nuclear process that releases energy at around 10MeV per atomic reaction compared to the burning of Hydrogen which only releases 1.5eV per atomic reaction (Burning H2 in O2). Per atom, the exothermal process has an energy content of more than a million times the energy content of the most energetic (per weight) chemical process. The higher weight of Nickel and the fact one usually disregard Oxygen's weight due to its presence in air makes the net factor around 200 000 when compared to oil.

The abundance of Nickel in the earth's crust and the low price of Nickel make the ECAT one of the cheapest energy producers around. The ECAT does not pollute or release any carbon dioxide. Put together, there is no doubt that this is a good and safe energy source for the future." ... more

Brillouin Energy Corporation (BEC) technology uses the hydrogen in ordinary water in a nuclear process that produces no hazardous waste. The process stimulates a Controlled Electron Capture Reaction (CECR) in a catalyst. This process creates low energy neutrons. The neutrons generate heat as they are captured, building heavier elements. This is a breakthrough source of Clean Green Energy!

The technology

The Company believes its approach enhances the efficiency of thermal energy production because all costs associated with fossil fuels are obviated. There is an absence of combustion and there are no emissions, or need for chimneys, flues and fuel. The high temperature and high pressure systems can be adapted to produce hot water or steam in boilers for emissionless space heating applications. More advanced applications of Brillouin's technology could power boilers for motive marine power and desalinization applications. Refinement and development of the technology could ultimately provide methods that significantly reduce costs associated with electric power generation.

Brillouin’s proprietary electronic pulse generator promotes proton-electron capture reactions. The pulses change some of the protons in metal to neutrons, and surrounding nuclei subsequently captures these produced neutrons. The subsequent neutron capture reactions generate heat, and because the pulses are controlled the thermal output from Brillouin's proprietary technology safely provides clean heat on demand." ... more

Fusion

"In March, 2007 Mark LeClair built and tested the first cavitation reactor powered by the LeClair Effect, based on our patented technology. More research was done from 2007 to 2009 with a variety of other reactor designs that led to a series of key experiments performed from July - August, 2009 under a grant, titled: Utilization of Crystallized Cavitation Reentrant Jets for Zero Point Energy Production. The goal was to produce a next stage hot water heater reactor based on the LeClair Effect and was awarded by a potential investor focused on promoting cold fusion. Mark LeClair and Serge Lebid discovered that the scaled-up LeClair Effect reactor was triggering intense fusion, fission and large scale elemental transmutation using ordinary water. The 1.25" ID by 12" long reactor produced 2.9 kW of hot water using only 840 watts of input, a coefficient of performance (COP) of 3.4 times more energy out than in. The water temperature was raised an average of 18 degrees C (32 degrees F) average passing through the reactor with 28 degree C (50 degrees F) temperature spikes observed. A total of twelve experiments were performed, with 100% repeatability of the high levels seen in excess heat and transmutation in the various configurations." ... more

E-Cat Technology by Andrea Rossi of Leonardo Corporation

"Independent website about Andrea Rossi, and his patented cold fusion technology, the E-Cat (Energy Catalyzer) a revolutionary, game-changing technology ready to provide for tomorrow's energy needs."

Overview

"Most people have heard of conventional nuclear power that is based on nuclear fission. These types of power plants produce energy in the form of heat (along with radioactive waste and massive amounts of radiation), by splitting atoms of certain isotopes of radioactive materials. The elements uranium and plutonium are both used in nuclear fission based reactors.

A "hot" nuclear fusion reaction is fundamentally different than a fission reaction. In a conventional nuclear fusion reaction, two atoms come together, merge, and a new atom is produced. For this to take place, high temperatures of millions of degrees are required. The result is also a large release of energy, but there can be similar drawbacks in that nuclear waste can be produced, and large quantities of radiation are emitted. Additionally, no one has been able to build a practical "hot fusion" reactor that produces a stable output of energy that is greater than the input required. There are teams working on building such hot fusion reactors, but the cost to do so is in the billions of dollars.

Cold fusion technology is a completely different type of nuclear reaction. It produces a large quantity of energy, but does so without the drawbacks of fission and hot fusion. Some of the benefits of cold fusion include the facts that it does not utilize radioactive materials as fuel or for any other purpose, does not produce nuclear waste, and only emits low levels of radiation that can be easily shielded. What is also very important is that cold fusion technology is ready to be used by industry. Billions of dollars are not needed to produce a practical, working cold fusion system. The E-Cat technology is ready for the market place now." ... more

"ZPEnergy is a NEWS PORTAL dedicated to experimental research on REVOLUTIONARY ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES. We propose to you to use this site as THE concentrator of choice for valuable news on the fascinating but still controversial subject of over-unity (O/U) fuel-less energetics (devices tapping the Zero Point Energy (ZPE)/ Vacuum/ Cosmic/ Ambient energy fields) and related. We want to let the general public know that this is an active field and good progress is made towards validating this technology and bringing the first commercial operational device to the market.

The portal gathers original content from individuals, news sites, personal and company websites, discussion groups and other areas that generate information of interest to the “Free Energy” (FE) and O/U researchers, scientists, students, and the increasingly environmentally responsible public. For all of us, having a central hub where real and important news on the topic is concentrated, makes sense. This is much simpler and efficient than to scan everyday through numerous sites, bulletin boards, discussion groups, etc., and search through pages of mostly irrelevant (for the general public) information, to find one that is worthwhile remembering and reporting. Google-news team has accepted ZPEnergy.com as a source for the new energy domain. We think this is a huge opportunity for the O/U community to better get its message out in the mainstream media.

Important, relevant news is rare and hard to find. Those who have or generate it may not have heard about ZPEnergy.com, don't bother to disseminate their information or, just prefer to keep it private. Even though we have to respect the third option, and sometimes facilitate private contacts ourselves, our mission is an educational one too. People have to understand that, in fact, each new major advance in science started with an anomaly that was unacceptable at first. They have to realize this is not all scams and junk science, as most skeptics want you to believe it is, in the name of protecting a few naive, uninformed or greedy people from the crooks and scam-artists who prey on exactly that. We share with the skeptics the requirement for proof (extraordinary proof for extraordinary claims), but not the dogmatic attitude towards the current laws of physics and the lack of encouragement for those who dare to go beyond what they think to be possible." ... more

"PES was founded by Sterling D. Allan in November of 2003 with the primary objective of open-sourcing alternative energy technologies. By "open source" we mean the open sharing of instructions of how to build and replicate fundamental energy concepts. We focus primarily on the "free energy" modalities that tap into inexhaustible energy reservoirs -- such as solar, wind, wave, tidal, geothermal; as well as less-conventional technologies such as cold fusion, zero point energy, radiant energy, and magnet motors. We also address other closely-related fields such as waste remediation, recycling, and water purification and derivation.

We seek to bring knowledge of suppressed technologies into more conventional arenas, by increasing awareness and scientific rigor, as well as by facilitating the necessary business, financial and legal collaborations needed for success." ... more
