Which U.S. Organization Bought Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat System?

October 30th, 2011

I’ve been watching Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat saga for over a year, and it just took a turn for the weird.

Cryptogon is read by all of the alphabet agencies, military branches, some members of the Congress (or their staffs), and the White House. Someone reading this post could know the answer to this simple question:

Who bought Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat system?

Via: Wired:

The successful test should pave the way for further work at the University of Bologna, and more contracts with the enigmatic customer. NyTeknik did discover one possible clue to their identity. The customer’s controller, one Domenico Fioravanti, apparently reports to a man whose title is “Colonel”. This suggests that the mystery customer might be DARPA, the Pentagon’s extreme science wing which, as Wired.co.uk has previously noted, has expressed interestin Rossi’s work — but which might not be quite ready to explain to its political masters why it spent millions on a cold fusion device.

    My best guess is the US Army Corps of Engineers.

    Second guess would be the US Navy, although they wouldn’t have a title of “Colonel”, unless it’s a multi-agency gig.

    I found this message, regarding a multicast system the US Navy Research Labs (NRL) uses, involving an Andrea Rossi from ihmc.us. Rossi isn’t listed on their online staff list, so it’s just a guess.

    Such a system would be of tremendous use to any ranch of the military. If the setup would be huge, it would likely make a good replacement for nuclear powered submarines, aircraft carriers, etc. It would make a near silent replacement for traditional gas/diesel generators and possibly vehicles. I could see the Army wanting to reduce the noise of their tanks, and reducing the generator noise from base and camp power plants.

    Of course, reducing the oil footprint is very interesting to them. It’s not to “go green”, but to reduce the required shipments of fuel oils for base/camp operation and vehicle operation.

    I can think of some more combat related purposes for it, but hopefully they’re not.
