Turns out there seems to be another side to the story (again):

Betts confirms that the partnership has ended. She however also confirms
Rossis statements on how the relation between both parties has been.
Further, the term "discussion" seems to be meant as a deeper
collaboration in the beginning.

Some weeks ago, Rossi said that NI, he and the customer were working
together on the 1MW plant. And now the customer wants something
different? Why change a running system (if it ever was running)? And
why is it important to the customer, which company supplies the
controlling mechanism for a heating plant?
Earning a place for your business on an approved vendor list can be
your ticket to winning more government-contract work. Nearly all prime
contractors maintain lists of preferred vendors and subcontractors
based on the quality and timeliness of their work and other
attributes. Many businesses work diligently to get on these lists
because they put these businesses one step closer to participating in
a government procurement.
If secrecy is involved, the approved vendor has been cleared to do
secret work with employees that have been vetted to the appropriate
security level. The vender also assigns a security officer that
maintains a confidential file system in a secured location within the
vender’s facility and handles and maintains the security clearances of
the employees.

From Rossi:
"Also our Customer has chosen other
suppliers for the first generation of the domestic E-Cats and
of the 1
MW plants. "
It is possible that a simple PLC/PAC could have been chosen.
I don't
think stabilization would be that big a challenge. All Rossi
needed
was some feedback.
