AVEIRO, December 2nd, 2024 — ENG8, working in collaboration with engineers and researchers from the University of Aveiro and the University of Porto at the PCI Creative Science Park in Aveiro, Portugal, breaks yet another global first in the race for fusion energy. On Monday, December 2, 2024, the company demonstrated that its EnergiCell-catalysed fusion reactor operates stably, producing over three times the energy required to sustain its plasma.
This breakthrough, presented to members of the Condensed Matter and Nuclear Science forum, the International Society for Condensed Matter and Nuclear Sciences, and the LENR Industrial Association, represents a significant leap forward in the quest for practical fusion energy.
EnergiCells fuse hydrogen nuclei to generate energy, producing photons (light) and directly generating electricity in the form of free electrons. Currently, EnergiCells produce electricity on a scale ranging from milliwatts to kilowatts, making them suitable for powering a wide range of applications—from personal electronics like phones and laptops to household appliances, electric vehicles, and even small homes.
The technology is designed for mass production, aiming to provide a decentralised, independent energy source to individuals and businesses worldwide, enabling everybody on the planet to have their own independent energy source.
Dr. Jean-Paul Biberian, a globally recognized expert in low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR), conducted technical due diligence on an EnergiCell in December 2023. His report, released this month, concluded that EnergiCells can sustain operations while producing kilowatts of output energy, with a net power output three times greater than the input. Independent validation conducted in October 2024 by Dr. Biberian confirmed that the EnergiCell system can sustain its operations autonomously and export net electricity. Dr. Biberian’s expertise in catalysed fusion, commonly known as “cold fusion,” lends credibility to the breakthrough. Additional independent validations conducted by IEP and other renowned laboratories confirmed that EnergiCells are safe, with emissions well within EU regulatory limits.
ENG8’s team of over 30 scientists and engineers brings decades of expertise in LENR/catalysed fusion technologies and power generation. This expertise, combined with growing interest from industrial customers in Portugal requiring energy outputs between 8 megawatts and 3 gigawatts, underscores the technology’s potential. Industries such as manufacturing, utilities and transportation are among those showing significant interest.
To address diverse energy needs, ENG8 is investing in and developing EnergiCells with power capacities ranging from one watt to one megawatt. The company is simultaneously working on chargers, modular generator sets and power plants incorporating EnergiCell technology. With practically unlimited energy potential, ENG8 aims to lead the energy sector by empowering its customers with sustainable solutions while promoting environmental and social responsibility.
