I believe the SES Stirling engine was designed by Kockums. It had
reliability and maintenance problems in the dusty desert environment of
the Maricopa solar plant, but is claimed to work well in the original
submarine application:

All of them would need to convert heat to electricity. That means a
Stirling engine, unless you believe the guys at Deuo Dynamics who have
a direct thermoelectric conversion in their LENR diode.
Which Stirling Engine is the best?
Cyclone Power? They have Dr. Kim
Infinia? bankrupt, sold Stirling stuff to qenergy.com

Dean Kamen? The Segway inventor went silent on his Stirling patent

Any others worth looking at? When LENR hits big, stirling cycle
engines will have their day in the sun.
