A government body endorses E-Cat in any way, shape or form? I’m not sure I’d be announcing this too proudly, as government bodies tend to endorse things like Solyndra.
This is an endorsement of LENR, not "E-Cat". And it is an endorsement of the need to do real science on the topic, instead of succumbing to the knee-jerk negative maunderings of the skeptopaths.
If we were to spend ONE PERCENT of what has already been spent on hot fusion ($250 BILLION), we would know one way or another SCIENTIFICALLY if LENR can be made to yield practical amounts of power. Instead, we have jerks like the MIT Professor(s) who interfered with the investment of even a few thousands of dollars of PRIVATE funding to investigate LENR at MIT.
Just look at the bureaucratic gibberish used for the title.
The European Union’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation has published a 2012 document entitled “Industrial Technologies Material Unit Forward Looking Workshop on Materials for Emerging Energy Technologies”You would think someone would know better than to post that garbage on FR from a blog named after an energy scam.
