If nuclear reactions are occurring then Rossi is still protected but the granting of the patent only covers ‘exothermic reactions of nickle and hydrogen under pressure’ which could easily fall short of nuclear reactions. Thus we are back at square one as pertains the validity of the eCAT.

Oh thank you so much, mugwump56 and Gondring, for your spadework and illuminating observations! Seem's the jury's still out on whether any kind of nuclear reaction has occurred at all.

If the patent only covers "exothermic reactions of nickle and hydrogen under pressure," then it seems the patent holder itself knows that nuclear reactions are probably not taking place. At least the patent doesn't seem to mention them. Or am I missing something?

I'm perplexed by what the Greek company Defkalion Green Technologies SA, had been excluded from in its exclusive licensing/marketing agreement with the patent holder. Defkalion has

[t]he rights to use and industrial use (for non-military purposes) of the invention of the Italians for the whole world except the United States.... Defkalion.

What on earth is going on here?

Thanks so much for writing! Please keep me posted!

What I think is going on is that Rossi is smarter than he looks.

If Pons & Fleishmann had never uttered the word “nuclear”, they would be billionaires right now. All they needed to say was it was an “anomalous chemical energy reaction”. Rossi learned their lesson.
