What is E-Cat Power?
The E-Cat Power generates electricity based on principles described in the paper "E-Cat SK and Long-Range Particle Interactions" by Andrea Rossi.
What is the output of an E-Cat NGU Power Cell?
The E-Cat NGU power cell generates DC (direct current) electricity.
Does the E-Cat NGU power cell produce light that shines on solar panels to generate electricity?
No. While E-Cat technology can produce light, it is much less efficient to use light to generate electricity, rather than producing DC electricity directly.
Does an E-Cat NGU power cell need to be connected to a power source to operate?
No, E-Cat Power operates in self-sustained mode (SSM), and does not require a connection to any external energy or fuel source.
Why combine the E-Cat NGU power cells with existing solar systems?
If you already have an existing solar system generating electricity, then E-Cat NGU power cells can be easily connected to your existing equipment, such as inverters and batteries, and you can quickly start using the power of E-Cat technology to supplement the electricity generated by your solar panels.
Will I still be able to use my solar panels if E-Cat NGU power cells are installed?
Yes, your solar panels will continue to generate electricity as normal. The E-Cat NGU power cells simply increase the amount of electricity generated by the system.
If I install the E-Cat Power, will I be able to generate electricity at night?
Yes, E-Cat Power operates in self-sustain mode, and will continue to generate electricity when the solar panels are not receiving sunlight.
What if the E-Cat Power generates more electricity than I need?
Will the E-Cat Power generate electricity to my installation if I disconnect my solar panels?
Yes, if your E-Cat NGU power cells are correctly connected to your electrical system they will continue to generate electricity.
Can I install E-Cat Power to generate electricity if I do not have solar panels?
Yes, you do not need to have a solar energy system installed to use E-Cat Power. However solar panels will increase the amount of energy produced in a system. If you do not use solar panels, you will need to have additional equipment installed that is typically used in solar installations, such as inverters and batteries.
What power rating do E-Cat NGU cells have?
E-Cat NGU power cells come in sizes of 10 W and 100 W. Multiple cells can be combined to provide the total amount of output desired. Additionally, pre-configured E-Cat NGU generators are available in various sizes.
What is the cost of E-Cat NGU power cells?
A 10 W cell is $25 USD, 100 W cell is $249. Generators very in cost, depending on size.
What are the primary applications for the E-Cat NGU?
The E-Cat SKLep NGU is an electricity generator, so it is suitable for a wide range of applications where electricity is needed.
What are the advantages to generating electricity with E-Cat NGU compared to other methods?
Mobile, self-sustaining (therefore no need for a grid connection or battery), lower cost, no CO2, no pollutants or emissions of any kind, no fuel consumption, continuous availability 24/7, small size, low weight.
What cost for electricity production can be expected with E-Cat NGU compared to e.g. solar and wind power?
Low enough to be highly competitive.
Is the E-Cat NGU safe?
Yes, the E-Cat SKLep NGU is safe. It doesn’t contain any hazardous materials, it has no emissions, and produces no ionizing radiation. It has been certified for safety and carries the CE-mark.
How does the E-Cat work?
E-Cat technology stands on 20 years of research and development, and is based on an innovative way to apply the physics of the electron, and on what is called Zero Point Energy. A theoretical hypothesis, explaining the operation of E-Cat technology, is presented by inventor Andrea Rossi in his paper E-Cat SK and long-range particle interactions.
Why have we not previously heard of research on Zero Point Energy (ZPE) and of the E-Cat technology?
Reporting on technology development occurring at the border of established physics requires several qualities—solid scientific training, great openness, true humility, and high courage.
The audience you can target at an early stage might also be limited. It makes spreading the awareness of technology such as the Ecat challenging.
In addition to this, the inventor initially believed that the effect had its origin in so-called LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reactions), with a series of theoretical issues. It took him years of experiments and studies, most of them collected in the bibliography of his paper until he could understand that the concept of ZPE was resolving all the theoretical issues raised by LENR.
Why hasn't the E-Cat technology been turned into a product until now?
Ten years for going from an idea to a product is perfectly normal with known physics. With unknown physics, 10 or 20 years for arriving at a product could be considered a feat and impressively fast.
How much is 100W? (The power production of an E-Cat NGU cell)
100W would power your TV-set continuously. But 100W non-stop power could be used in more ways.
Producing 100W for 24 hours means 2400 Wh or 2.4 kWh of energy.
An average household in the EU consumes about 10 kWh of energy per day, so with 4 or 5 Ecat SKLep NGU cells, and some energy storage, you would theoretically cover the electricity consumption of an average household.
By how much does the E-Cat NGU reduce CO2 emissions?
If you use the E-Cat NGU to replace power from the grid you will consume 100W less grid power. In 24 hours, you will have saved about 2,4 kWh of energy. The world average carbon intensity of electricity generated is 475 g CO2/kWh, so on average, depending on where you live, you will reduce CO2 emissions by about 1 kg in 24 hours.
In what applications will E-Cat Power first come into practical use?
We believe lighting, heating and battery charging.
How much money do I save on electricity with E-Cat technology?
If you use one E-Cat SKLep SSM to replace power from the grid you will use about 100W less grid power. In 24 hours, you will have saved about 2,4 kWh of energy. In the EU, the average price per kWh is about 0.21 euro, meaning that you will save about 0.5 euro in 24 hours, or 180 euro in a year.
Can I preorder the E-Cat SKLep NGU now?
Yes, you can preorder the power source here now.
Can you combine several E-Cat units to achieve higher power values?
Yes, by interconnecting the desired number of E-Cat SKLep NGU cells in the same way as with solar panels.
When will I get the E-Cat NGU?

Can you give a simple explanation of how the E-Cat SKLep can produce electricity?
A simple explanation is impossible, apart from saying “just turn it on”. It is based on what is called Zero Point Energy, which is a very complex concept in which energy can be extracted from the vacuum though quantum effects. It is explained in the inventor’s paper here.
