The efficiency of a gas electric generator is about 33%. If the Cop of a Rossi reactor is 3, that means that the Rossi plant is about the same cost wise as a straight up gas burner.
When gas is used to fire the Rossi reactor, the overall efficiency of that reactor goes up a few times but it is not very good at all. This is why Rossi must go to gas for the heat he needs to keep his reactor activated. The upcoming battle of the LENR systems in the market place is going to be one of efficiency and in this regard, Rossi does not look very well positioned.
