This article reviews highlights of low-energy nuclear reaction research that uses the nanomaterial and hydrogen-isotope-gas absorption method. Most of the work originated in several Japanese universities. In the last few years, this research has also been sponsored by Technova, a Toyota subsidiary. Researchers at the Toyota Central Research and Development Laboratories in Nagakute, Aichi, Japan, have also begun experiments in this LENR method.

Aspects of this story trace back to at least 1926, when Fritz Paneth and Kurt Peters, of the University of Berlin, used finely divided palladium, also called palladium-black, in their room-temperature hydrogen-palladium experiments. Their claim and their subsequent self-doubt resulted in controversy, but their work represents an important marker in the history of low-energy nuclear reaction research.[1] Continue reading »

[This is the first of a four-part series.]

After a decade-long absence from low-energy nuclear reaction research, the Electric Power Research Institute in Palo Alto, Calif., has sponsored work in the field. Recent LENR work by researchers at Toyota Central Research and Development Laboratories in Nagakute, Aichi, Japan, shows that Toyota also is seriously interested in the field. Another Toyota subsidiary, Technova, has sponsored recent LENR research in Japan.

EPRI is an independent research company that provides technology, policy and economic analyses to its members. EPRI’s corporate members include companies that produce 90 percent of the electricity generated and delivered in the United States; EPRI also has members in 40 countries. Continue reading »

Dear Readers,

Welcome to New Energy Times 3.0! Today I am pleased to announce the launch of a major re-design of the New Energy Times Web site and News Service. We also start our new subscription service today. We strive to evolve with technology and respond to reader preferences for news delivery and hope you find many improvements.

Introducing the New Energy Times News Service

After today, most of our feature articles and exclusive news content will be available to subscribers only. You will be able to read the first paragraph or two of all articles, but then the articles for subscribers will display a lock icon and a login prompt. Once you log in, the full article will become visible. Every month, or sooner if major news occurs, we will send you an e-mail with a list of the latest New Energy Times headlines and links to the full articles. We now provide Twitter service for instant notification of all New Energy Times news stories. Continue reading »
