The short answer is they are not currently in possession of an ECat.
I had a hard time finding them in that page. I'm reporting them here.
Ferrari's answer in particular is worth of mention:

Rats Gautam:
I sent emails to all the individuals mentioned in Loris Ferrari's
article but only received responses from Mauro Villa and Loris Ferrari
himself.
My question:
"Am I right in saying the University of Bologna is now in possession of
an E-Cat and is doing tests to understand the physics behind how the
device works?"

Mauro Villa:
"the answer is no, or more precisely not yet. We're looking forward to
see that happen (sooner than later). Probably we'll start a measurement
campaign on an E-Cat device not before september."

Loris Ferrari:
"I am glad to answer to your kind message. First of all, the title of my
article is ironic: "foolish energy", in every-day Italian, means also "a
lot of energy". I think that this double meaning was not clear to the
translator. Second: the sentence you report in your message should be
corrected as follows: "... we have moved from Event to Fact, from "they
say" to "it's measured" ..." Third and more importantly, the Department
of Physics of Bologna and dr Andrea Rossi are going to sign a contract
according to which the people indicated in my article will be allowed to
make any "external" measurements on the E-cat, without access to the
internal content, in order to certify the emitted power exactly, the
radiation (if any) and any other possible feature of interest. The
people indicated will be free to publish their results, except those
interfering with industrial secretness. For example, should we find that
the emitted power is an illusion, or much less than claimed, we will be
free to publish. In a sense, we will be forced, since the Department of
Physics has explicitly required a periodical report on the state of the
art of the experiments. So, what you suppose in the conclusive sentence
of your message is not still effective, but is incoming in few days,
presumably. Thanks for your attention and interest"
