Pictures of 1 MGW E-cat Unit Now Available

The Swedish technology magazine Ny Teknik has posted the first pictures and video of Andrea Rossi’s 1 Megawatt e-cat cold fusion generator unit to the world. Rossi allowed Ny Teknik reporter Mat Lewan to examine the e-cat generator he is building there. This will apparently be the unit that will be turned over to an unnamed “American entity” for testing sometime in October.

Rossi's e-cat test unit

The unit which looks like a cargo container it is apparently a portable steam generator designed for industrial, commercial or military purposes. Ny Teknik was allowed to witness a test of it. Lewan said the unit ran for 90 minutes after receiving a thermal electric power input of 2.6 kilowatts. After the power was shut off the unit ran for 35 minutes without external energy output.

It looks like a cargo container but it could be a revolutionary energy source

The e-cat generated a temperature of 130 degrees but did not create any visible steam. Ross told Lewan that the e-cat could deliver about 27 kilowatts. These claims seem questionable since Rossi himself has stated he is not ready to generate electricity with the e-cat yet.

Water pump on the e-cat test unit

The e-cat plant Rossi intends to deliver would contain 52 E-cats. The devices are mounted along the rows of a 20 foot cargo container. The devices are connected to a valve for filling hydrogen, electric wiring and a water supply. Steam would leave the container through a valve which would apparently be connected to a turbine or other device. It is unclear whether this is the final design or simply a test model.

Lewan reported that Rossi told him the device was designed with the help of Swedish physicists Sven Kullander and Hano Essen who examined e-cat and met with Rossi at Ny Teknik’s request earlier this year. The design is apparently based on research done by Hidetsugu Ikegami who is described as a professor emeritus at Japan’s Osaka University.

This will probably be the device that Rossi and a group of scientists will test for a US organization for four months starting in October. Rossi has not stated what US organization he will be testing it for. So it could be a big corporation, the US military, the Department of Energy or even NASA or a combination of all of them.
