BIG NEWS IN THE HEATING POWER FIELD. UPDATE ONLINE ABOUT THE ECAT. Apparently the heat is less than envisioned. About a quarter, but still workable they say?

At this time, Leonardo Corporation is offering one megawatt E-Cat plants for sale, that are capable of producing hot water, or low temperature steam.
These plants consume small quantities of nickel powder and hydrogen gas, to produce vast amounts of continual power - up to one megawatt of output in the form of heat. They require infrequent refueling (once every six months), and can operate 24 hours a day, regardless of weather conditions or external environmental conditions. In addition, they emit no pollution, do not release any radiation, and do not utilize any radioactive or hazardous substances.
The one megawatt plants offered can operate with a "drive" (continual input power) that is a fraction of the output power, or in a "self sustained" mode. In the self sustained mode, a one megawatt plant can operate at full power, while consuming a miniscule amount of electricity to operate fans, pumps and radio frequency generators. These radio frequency generators help stabilize and sustain the nuclear processes, so the reactor can continue functioning with almost zero input.
A one megawatt plant can be shipped anywhere in the world, because it can fit inside a standard shipping container -- 5 meters long, 2.6 meters high, and 2.6 meters wide. The system weighs approximately ten tons.
The plant can be delivered via land, air, or sea transport. Each plant contains a number of individual modules, which can vary between 52 and 107 or more. The exact number of modules will depend on the purchase agreement, and the desires of the customer. Each individual reactor contains three reactor cores.
Other aspects of the one megawatt plant that should be noted are as follows.
* It is not loud, producing a volume of less than 50 decibels at a distance of five meters.
* It is environmentally friendly, consuming only tiny amounts of fuel, while producing no pollution.
* It's output can be modulated by multiple means -- turning off individual modules, adjusting the level of input "drive", or varying hydrogen pressure.
* It cannot "melt down" like conventional nuclear reactors. This is because if the temperature inside the reactor cores rise beyond a certain level, the nickel powder will melt, destroying the reaction sites at which the nuclear reactions take place. With the reaction sites destroyed, the reactor cores will no longer function, and all nuclear processes will cease.
* An auxiliary power source of 250 kW will be needed to start up the plant, bringing the resistive heaters up to temperature.
Along with the purchase of a one megawatt plant to a qualified customer (no sales to private individuals are allowed at this time), complementary training will be provided to the customer's staff who will be operating the plant. Such training must take place along with the delivery of the system.
