On Elforsk site, there is an announce about the creation of an energie instritute in Sweden, Energiforsk. The announce is proudly signe by The bosses of Elforsk and Energiforsk, Magnus Olofsson and Jan Sammuelsson. Magnus Olofson after the publication of Lugano E-cat test report have said that there was now a good reason to launch research efforts around LENR...

The press release says that from 1 Jan 2015, the operations of Elforsk will be merged into a new company, Energiforsk, which will deal with research on all kinds of energy, not only electricity, and will comprise existing research entities from the whole energy industry in Sweden. Owners will be a larger group of energy companies. Magnus Olofsson remains CEO for the new company.
So Elforsk became Energiforsk and increase it's perimeter to any energy ?It seems coherent if one want to support LENR transition, the non electrified energies to replace,and the few energies that remains...
The concept - Energiforsk - was first announced by Magnus Olofsson - Elforsk AB in the editorial of ELFORSK Perspektiv No. 2 in 2013

QuoteDisplay MoreNow cooperation with Energy Authority accelerated.
Collaboration programs Elektra and solar electricity is running and Vindforsk during start-up. Swedish Hydropower Centre (SVC), a Cooperation between hydroelectric companies, universities and Energy Agency, as well as continuing previously. In turn, there are also new research programs. Such is KLIV- Power and lives in water, will tackle the difficult art of in an economically sound manner safeguarding the local environment in and around our regulated rivers. Here is a contradiction. But one should not forget that water energy's positive environmental effect itself is very strong, and to the sub eases deployment of another renewable but variable force sun and wind.
The support from the Swedish Energy Agency is especially valuable now that profits declines in several of Elforsk's customers and thus the resources to research and development. At the same time, it is now it is as most valuable to cooperate. Partly to share costs but also to good ideas often come when people meet. Therefore, it pleasing to note that cooperation in Elforsks programs leading to fruitful meetings between people of different backgrounds and experiences. A strength of the cooperation is the wisdom that these people share, and that violates others' knowledge in terms of research focus and application of results.
One-man investigator Jan Nordling has tabled its proposal on how the Energy Research Institute(Energiforsk) can be organized. That is how Elforsk, Värmeforsk, Fjärrsyn and SGC,Swedish Gas Centre, to be able to work together under the name Energy Research Institute(Energiforsk). The question now treated in the respective organizations' boards and Swedish Energy's CEO is mandated to work towards a possible formation.
We have reason to revisit the issue.

So it is more a reorganization to face wider problems from energy change, and income reduction from utilities...

Franck Ackland have contacted Marcus Olofson and he answered with a "not yet decided" :
Quote from E-cat WorldI contacted Mr. Olofsson regarding the formation the Energy Research Institute, and asked if it would be involved in the study of LENR. He responded saying, “We do not have a decision on this specific matter for the time being.”
