According to a post on the E-Cat Report blog site, Italian inventor Andrea Rossi was in Sweden on July 4 and 5 to enter into an agreement with Uppsala University to perform research on the underlying physics of an invention by Rossi. He claims that his device produces clean nuclear energy.
Professors Sven Kullander, retired from Uppsala University, and Hanno Essén, with the Royal Institute of Technology, endorsed Rossi’s claimed technology in a news story on Feb. 23, 2011, before they had seen or inspected the device on March 29. According to his Web site, Essén is the chairman of the Swedish Skeptics Association, a nonprofit education group well-known in academic circles.
New Energy Times contacted Senior Press Officer Anneli Waara of Uppsala University today in an attempt to confirm the story. Waara sent our inquiry to Kullander and Essén.
“According to Professor Kullander, there is no such agreement or preparing for an agreement as suggested by that information,” Waara wrote.
New Energy Times’ investigation about Rossi’s device, including two reports, is here.
In addition, New Energy Times is preparing a third report, which will be a comprehensive review of the scientific issues surrounding the Rossi device.
