Apparently they have allocated the following funds to study the technology:
A report published earlier this year by ELFORSK showed that in 2012, 200,000 Swedish Krona (about 23,000 Euros) was budgeted for the study of the E-Cat, and in each of the following three years 2,000,000 Krona was budgeted for its study. Can't read Swedish, but the report is here if someone would care to verify the numbers: http://www.elforsk.se/Global/Om%20Elforsk/Filer/ELFORSKs%20FoU-plan%202013%2 0webb.pdf -Mark Iverson -----Original Message----- From: Akira Shirakawa [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2013 2:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Vo]:Elforsk endorsement of E-Cat testing On 2013-05-23 21:45, Akira Shirakawa wrote: > Hello group, A couple more links.

From E-Cat World, with links to hints to such cooperation during the past months: http://www.e-catworld.com/2013/05/swedish-rd-company-elforsk-ab-comments-pos itively-on-e-cat-report/ One could argue that the E-Cat HT report might not have been written under the best standards of quality for a scientific publication, but if the Swedish R&D company formed by the association of the local national power grid and electric utilities is willing to put their name (and money) on this, then it might be the time to start taking Rossi seriously to not be caught unprepared. This is news that might have significant impact on business decisions in the short to medium term, in my opinion. Cheers, S.A.
