If they can get the catalizers to act as efficient

on electrical conversion.
For the conversion to electricity, it should be first determined which
method to follow.
A couple come in mind:
- TEG
- Steam turbine
- Stirling engine
From those above I have the impression that Rossi seems to prefer the
Stirling engine.
Well he's in luck as actually these types of systems are already albeit
in low volumes used for conventional heating systems in the Netherlands
and Belgium.
See also second column (MEC) on the following page

One of the companies who produces these is Vaillant.

As you can see it is absolutely feasible to have very fast a combined
system on the market.
Maybe a suggestion for Rossi or Defkalion to start some kind of
cooperation with one of these companies to develop and produce a
combined heater and CHP system.
Kind regards,
