Neutrino Energy Germany – research centre

Since the two physicists Takaaki Kajita and Arthur B. McDonald were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015

for their research in the field of neutrinos, the tiny atomic particles have been able to rehabilitate their hitherto dubious reputation as energy suppliers. Since the two Nobel laureates were able to prove that neutrinos have mass, and since, according to Einstein, energy is always present when mass is in motion, it is now clear that neutrinos too can in principle be used to generate energy. Holger Thorsten Schubart recognised this potential some years ago.

As a subsidiary of the US Neutrino Energy Group under the direction of CEO Holger Thorsten Schubart, the company was already sure some years ago that nothing is impossible when it comes to generating energy from invisible cosmic radiation.

How is this energy made usable?

Resonance amplification will solve the energy problem of the future. Electric current is to be obtained from cosmic radiation. To generate it, nanoparticles on metallic carriers are set vibrating; amplified by resonance, these vibrations set electrons in motion. This is possible always and everywhere where electrical energy is needed. Distribution via nationwide power lines will therefore no longer be necessary in future.

A particularly positive recent development is that, according to the latest scientific findings and calculations, the law of conservation of energy also holds for neutrino energy. It is a physically possible model, expressly not a perpetual motion machine, because using neutrino energy is an open-ended system into which sufficient potential energy suppliers constantly flow.

When will energy from neutrinos be usable for everyone?

Renowned companies, institutes and universities have already opened up to the topic of applying neutrino energy. Until now, basic research had dominated the subject of neutrinos. The goal of applied research: in future, to harvest and provide electrical energy directly wherever it is needed. For this purpose, for example, a Neutrino Power Cube is installed which, like a photovoltaic system but with the great advantage that it also works in the dark, makes energy usable on site and supplies, for example, an entire household. But it can be even simpler, because a small neutrino energy cell could in principle also be built directly into every electrical device (Neutrino Inside).

The basic principle already applies today: the patented energy cell consists of a compressed stack of special foils (coated with doped graphene-silicon nanocrystals) that convert the invisible energy spectrum into direct electric current. According to the scientists’ calculations, this produces 36,000 watts per cubic metre, without capturing individual neutrinos but merely converting a small part of their kinetic energy. Even for electric cars, a self-sufficient energy supply from neutrino energy is to become possible – electric mobility, as it were, without the problems of charging stations and range. In principle, every electrical device can be supplied with energy from invisible radiation.

The experts agree that in the coming decades neutrino energy has the potential to meet the world’s energy needs in a climate-neutral way.

The Neutrino Energy Group

The Neutrino Energy Group is a German-American research group. Its aim is to find ways to harness the power of the invisible radiation spectrum. As fossil fuels are limited and climate change requires the development of alternative and CO2-neutral energy sources, this research group is dedicated to an urgent problem. It has succeeded in creating a dense substance that can interact in a specific way with neutrinos and other invisible radiation. This unique substance is used to build the first neutrino photovoltaic cells for power generation. Vapour-deposited layers of silicon and doped graphene are applied to the carrier layer to make the end product. The thickness of these layers is in the nanometre range. When neutrinos and other invisible radiation strike this substance, they generate both horizontal and vertical impulses. It is crucial that the doped materials have the right layer thickness. At the optimum layer thickness, the atomic vibrations caused by the impulses are brought into resonance. As a result, an electric current can be detected in the substrate material. The hypothesis states that the amount of energy that can be harvested depends on the distance travelled in the process. With this approach it will soon be possible to charge electrical devices anywhere in the world without needing a socket or a cable. Simply “collecting” energy from the environment is a viable option. As a result, humanity will have access to an endless supply of clean energy, which will help to slow or halt global warming.

The Neutrino® Energy Group works with a worldwide team of scientists and various international research centres. They research applications for converting invisible radiation spectra of the sun, including neutrinos – high-energy particles that reach the Earth incessantly and can be converted into electrical energy.
