He stated months ago that he expected a full ecat power plant to be running in Greece by September or October. Delivering power on the grid. To customers. For sale.
***I don’t think so. The 1MW demo was always gonna be about heat. Feel free to produce evidence for your claim.
Instead, he delivered a string of thoroughly unsatisfying public demos, culminating in this one you’re crowing about.
***Initially, he was saying there would be NO demos. He acquiesced because his friend Focardi is in ill health and wanted the recognition. Rossi sucks at demos; that’s probably why he only wanted to do the customer demo exclusively in the first place.
He delivered little more than an unverifiable claim that his top-secret customer is pleased as punch because the device can run for a short period of time while connected to a generator, and we’ll just have to wait an unspecified further amount of time for energy to become virtually free.
***Yup. Rossi sucks at demos. He has said this isn’t about convincing skeptics (like you) but about selling units. Eventually the satisfied customers will be enough to convince the ultraskeptics, and if that doesn’t, why should he care?
I think you’re crowing far too much what he’s promised and what he’s delivered. Do you honestly think this sort of timeline of events can’t be considered “dragging it out?”
***Yes
