In a small article Sifferkoll tell us that Sylvie Coyaud have revealed the location of E-cat latest 3rd party test : in Lugano, Switzerland.

He also raise very nasty and interesting question :

Quote

maybe Swedish taxpayers paid more for the SR/Hansson/Björksten crusade than for everything else related to LENR since 1989… hmm, kind of interesting…

Finally he continue questioning the "team" of Björksten/Hansson/Coyaud

Quote

They seem to share a common interest in the political power of the environmentalists.

.

LENR community have raised concern since long on vested interest in oil companies.
I don't share this vision, based on the active participation of some oil companies like Amoco, Shell, and recently SAIPEM/ENI, to LENR research and conferences. Various corporations like Toyota, Mitsubishi, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, ST Micro, National instruments, show some interest in LENR and seems more to suffer from academic terrorism than from corporate black suits.

This terrorism will disappear like Berlin wall and Lysenkoism soon. However the political opposition of those who bet on the wrong horses, the lobbies of the soon to be buried energies, the soon to be buried ideologies of scarcity, and the workers union of dead energies, will be our next enemies. They have big budget, maybe bigger than Exxon PR, because it is taxpayer's and donator's money, not shareholder's money, and because they are desperate to die with no hope to benefit.

Maybe our mission will be to find them an exit strategy, different from frontal opposition.

Finding a way for workers union, the green businessmen and workers, to accept the disruptive revolution, the workers retraining...
Finding an environmental discourse that give hope, gives a mission of environmentalist to accompany the clean transition transition, carefully not saying they were wrong.

One rule toward acceptation, when you face an economic rent, is to buy it, exchange it, not to kill it.

I agree that big incumbent corps, established on a market with much more to lose than to win will try to slow the revolution.

However they also have incentive to embrace the new revolution, at they mammoth pace. They are composed of people , executives, workers, who have individual incentive to escape the sinking boa called "company". Of course at the beginning the less courageous actors will try to save the ship, to battle against what they consider as "enemy"...
See how in france we try to defend metallurgy near the empty abandoned 19th century mines, refusing even to move to the port where the minerals flow.

I am much more afraid of fannatic people, defending an idea, a vision of the world instead of their butt, their selfish interest.

See how the physicist defended their myth, their ego, their dogma, against all evidence, just because they could not bear to admit they did not find the trick of physics.

I expect similar desperate defence of people having no intellectual escape. those whose meaning of life oppose the "cornucopian" consequence of LENR, the death of many enemies like climate CO2 or fission energy.
Those people will feel like fannatized military units when signing peace... desperate, inventing conspiracy to make the war continue.

Some says that this happened when Berlin wall fall, and the military-industrial complex invented new enemies.
same for the academics needing funding, whose budget was fed by cold war...
For some time the was against drug did the job.
There was then war agains terrorism...
And... you know...

In a way this gives us hope. Maybe those "fanatic" are not so fanatic. what they need is a funding.
Like all the military-industrial complex and the Ivy leages univesities they will surf on another fashion.

I hope that behind the fanatic activist that will never surrender (like those who still want a cold war), there is a crowd of selfish interest who, like the corporate interest, will ask for a share of the revolution, will just slow the revolution, but will embrace it.

I agree with most of what you say.
Western is collapsing under conservative interest of all kind, big and small, from docker to finance industry.
I just consider that Russia is not an emerged country like China, Brasil, India, but a petronarchy.

Yes, LENR industry is at infancy, and most of the energy have still be wasted in breaking the wall of denial. Thing advance slowly. Few years ago, E-cat was visibly lunatic and unstable... Today it seems at least stable and reliable if we interpret the length of the test as an evidence of interesting result and long lasting measurement.

If Western industry want to survive it have first to "assassinate the father", old habits and governmental helps, and exploit the corpse of big business (huge capital, huge competences, huge infrastructure, huge networks) while not obeying them as usual.
Small companies should collaborate without being submissive. Pilot fish and dumb shark...

This is the deep meaning of the soon to develop LENR ecosystem. One is in inception in EU with LENR-Cities. Something more naive is prepared visibly around DoD/SRI, but we are far from an ecosystem.

China should not be feared as the Devil, and we should use it as the "rabbit" in a dog race. I suspect that Tom Darden have this vision. However we should realize that we cannot treat China as a weak market or a weak industry... They will win their share of the world, and will battle for the rest.
