I’m a fan of lftr thorium reactors. I think they’re the one’s most likely to take the cost of energy 1/4-1/10 current levels. That said:

the forbes article links to the DOE document
https://arpa-e-foa.energy.gov/FileContent.aspx?FileID=1c56ac4a-0acd-43ee-a2ec-ab80b33f4146

you can see the reference to low energy at

figure 3 page 7
Figure 3. A matrix providing representative examples of energy conversions within or between the six energy categories. Technical subcategories for submission are derived from these energy conversions (see Table 1).

chemonuclear reactors, low-energy nuclear reactions, nuclear fuel chemistry

” but if someone has laid down 20 million”

No one has. It was a rumor started by Kevmo based on a blog by some dude that calls himself Jennifer.
.............
It does not look like a rumor. Rather it comes via a press release that was reposted.

There are several reports among energy journals about the transaction. Here’s one in oilprice.com.

Industrial Heat Acquires E-Cat Technology, Opening Commercial LENR Frontier

A major development in the story of LENR (low energy nuclear reactions, aka ‘cold fusion’) broke on Friday afternoon from Raleigh, North Carolina, with start-up Industrial Heat, LLC’s announcement via a press release that the company had acquired the rights to Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat technology.

Here is the link to the press release.

Wonder Warthog posted about an MIT LENR session. I did a brief google search and came up with a Kevmo post last week that linked to the article which looks legit. Several freepers have taken courses with the profs cited.

The ground may be shifting on this story.

“you can see the reference to low energy at”

Yes. You can submit your LENR proposal. Doesn’t mean you will get any money.

“Wonder Warthog “

Wonder Warthog is a regular on one of the LENR websites. He is here spamming for them.

Thanks for showing that is is merely one of the sub-categories for which a proposal may be submitted and that there is no money allocated by DOE for research.

” So the establishment brass who would choose to stay on top of things would continue to fund SPAWAR until there is some kind of showdown. “

SPAWAR ceased funding LENR years ago.

“They saw Rossi’s demo, verified it with their own independent expert, and then reached for their checkbooks to the tune of $20M. “

A few days ago it was 11 million. Now it is 20 million. And NO source for the claim!

“Mitchell Schwartz demonstrated his “Nanor” generator. It ran for the entire period of the course (course participants directly took data from the calorimetry and did their own calculations of excess heat), for another two months in Hagelstein’s office, and then a far longer time back at Schwartz’s lab.”

The dear Mr. Schwartz says he does not expect the technology to be accepted during his lifetime! What am I missing?

***What a bunch of horse manure. It was a Press Release from the investors.

Unfortunately, ARPA-E isn’t really interested in LENR.

I have asked you repeatedly to stop posting to me, seagull.

Please stop posting such stupidity, and stop posting anything to me. Read the freepin’ article and you’ll see where the $11M and the $20M both come from. But... we all know you have reading comprehension problems so this looks like it will be a permanent problem for you.

Who is Sweeney, the author?

I am a pest for posting that the lead authority on LENR does not expect to see acceptance of his technology during his lifetime?
