Welcome


There’s enough hydrogen in one-cubic kilometer of ocean water to provide energy more than all the world’s oil resources

and a third choice in atomic power.

With the cold fusion process, there is no CO2 emissions and no radioactive waste. Fusion-sized heat delivered without a grid from your very own generator. Batteries that last for the life of a device, and can be recycled after. Metal hydrogen energy, quantum hydrogen energy, LENR, or cold fusion, all the names describe a novel reaction that occurs when hydrogen crams into the tiny nano-spaces in metals and is revolutionizing our understanding of nuclear physics.

2019/01/15 e020 Robert Godes, President and Chief Technical Officer of Brillouin Energy Corporation, with 30-years experience as an inventor of technology with applications in areas from distributed data collection to control systems. Brillouin Energy Corp.’s signature product is the Hydrogen Hot Tube HHT, which has had leaps in output power in recent months. After having its technology tested and evaluated by SRI International, two reports were issued with power output generally less than 10 Watts thermal excess. New 2019 tests of the reactor core with a fresh Q-pulse panel are showing 100+ Watts at just over 2x power output.
