It hasn’t taken long for Andrea Rossi to get back to posting on his site following last Friday’s demonstration. He said he was going to take a break to play tennis, but it was a pretty short one; he was online again on Saturday and is now back answering questions at a steady clip. Q & A’s now seem to be focused more on the commercialization side of the E-Cat, and there have been some interesting interchanges.
First, Rossi confirmed that the plant that was tested by Domenico Fioravanti on Friday has been taken away for delivery to the customer — showing that putting the whole thing in a shipping container was a smart idea.
When asked when the next sale would take place, Rossi answered, “done” — and said it was to a different customer than the first one. There was no indication of a second plant in the Bologna factory, so perhaps the sale was a purchase in advance of it being constructed, or maybe there’s another location where these units are being manufactured.
When asked how many units he was expecting to build in the first year, Rossi answered, “From 30 to 100 for the first year is what we are already ready to make, but we will get exponentially faster in time”, which means that production facilities must getting lined up to handle these orders. Rossi When asked where in the United States he will be working, and hiring people he listed Miami, FL; Manchester, NH; and Boston, MA. Rossi mentioned again that the industrial strength plants are ready for manufacturing, but there still is work to do to get authorization from government regulators for the small household units to be sold.
Rossi says he will back in the USA soon — “We gotta make jobs.”
UPDATE: Apparently it’s more than just a second plant that has been sold. Rossi was asked at the JONP whether he had sold 2 or more plants, and he answered, “more.” Also, asked if he could say who any of the other customers were he declined to do so saying, “I want not our Customers assailed by the puppetts moved by their puppetteers. Let the plant go to work, then they will reveal themselves automatically. Probably you did not understand that there is a war against us.”

[...] Since the latest test in Bologna, Italy, Andrea Rossi received several orders for new 1 megawatts powerplants from unnamed clients. http://www.e-catworld.com/2011/10/rossi-second-…ial-growth-of-sales/ [...]
I remain skeptically optimistic. While I really hope the Ecat is the real deal there is too much overall secrecy surrounding it.
Firstly, and I know I will be jumped on for this, the Ecat was still attached to a running generator. If you want me to believe it is self sustaining turn the generator off.
Second, the “customer” who “bought” it, even though it was still plugged into a generator, is completely anonymous. Someone saying their customer is completely satisfied is not the same thing as the customer saying he is.
Third, there has been no scientific review of the Ecat before sales. If it is to be believed that it is a cold fusion reaction, it need scientific review before sales to guarantee safety, if nothing else. A cold nuclear reaction is still a nuclear reaction. From a liability standpoint what Rossi is doing is extremely foolhardy.
Those are my concerns with the Ecat test. If the devise is truly being tested by the Bologna University I hope they reveal to the world that the Ecat is the real deal. Otherwise, I will have to conclude this is another in a long line of free energy scams.
Spot-on analysis of E-Cat Russell, myself having similar concerns.
I urge folks to pull up Rossi’s bio on Wiki. You’ll be surprised to the fact he has a criminal background although ‘acquitted’ makes one somewhat concerned as to whom he associates with?
Surely everyone has heard of the word “Ponzi” related to a financial scheme. Well folks many people in our modern era have been duped by alleged technological advancements soon to fail after introduction into the marketplace.
I’m hoping beyond all hope that this would turn out to be the real deal simply as an “Edison” type breakthrough in power generation. Possibly Rossi too, as Edison, is a hands-on, practical genius without the hardcore mathematical and physical science background to explain his invention via formally accepted modes, but in the final analysis it works. (hopefully so) : )
It means hasta la vista babeee to oil sheiks and other perveyors of oil and natural gas as the world’s premier energy source.

Unfortunately there is a big investment in existing energy sources that is protected by big interests who care only about their importance and power to control the world. Many scams have been presented to discourage belief in any real breakthrough like E-cat. If the powers that be can not own it they will destroy it. Hopefully E-cat technology will prevail by proving superior to existing technology and be more conducive to a decentralized energy economy thus diversify power production so it can truly serve the needs of many and not just the few.
There are nations whose entire economies and governments are run solely on the revenue generated by oil and natural gas. Of course there is opposition to revelation of any new energy source that is both cheap and effective.
It is ironic that just two days after the October 28th test, nature provided the best advertisement for his system by a second record storm that left 77% of Connecticut without power. The thunderous roar of home gas powered generators has stopped now that power is returning, but Mr Rossi makes the whole electric infrastructure that fell apart obsolete.

Dear Mr. Rossi,
When will an ~ 1 KW household e-cat be available? I would love to have one. As I am living in Alaska it would be extremely useful for remote sites.
Sincerely, Steve Parry

Rossi’s commercial e-mail is: info@leonardocorp1996.com
Well, what if we visit the website http://leonardocorp1996.com …
That is the website of a company called “EON”, also known as “Leonardo Corporation”. The company makes electric generators (GENSETS) fueled by vegetable oils and animal fats. The company is probably a property of Andrea Rossi.
Address of Leonardo Corporation:
116 South River Road
Bedford, N.H. 03110 – USA
Phone +1 603 668 7000 – +1 603 674 1309
Fax +1 603 647 4325
So, can someone please go to Bedford, New Hampshire, and knock at the door of 116 South River Road, and ask: “Hello, are you building E-Cats here? I want to buy one…”
