The world needs a new Tesla

Today’s scientific world is shaped by a few.

It is no secret that in the scientific world only a handful of scientists can actually develop scientific ideas and make discoveries. At a time when technological independence is becoming the basis for the stability and even the survival of a nation’s economy, the value of such people is multiplying.

Events connected with current conflicts once again show clearly that the energy sector is the most important industry. The decades-old structure of the electricity supply, based on generation in large power stations with a system of substations, is very vulnerable, especially in a situation of political and military confrontation. A simple lack of electricity immediately paralyses the whole of industry and households, since modern people cannot survive without electricity, especially in megacities.

The more autonomous and decentralised power generation systems are, the more resilient the distribution. However, these foundations must not be based on fossil fuel technologies, as reserves are limited and such power generation has a negative effect on the dynamics of rising average annual temperatures. Soon large areas of the Earth could become uninhabitable for humans.

Investment in energy supply will take decades, so building a decentralised power generation system is a gradual, evolutionary transition that will most likely require innovative, revolutionary solutions for generating electricity and using new materials.

The strategy of switching to electric mobility requires increased power generation, and weather-dependent wind and solar power stations cannot be a guaranteed, baseload-capable source of electricity supply. They can be seen as an alternative energy option for the transition period, given the lack of other, more technology-driven solutions aimed at moving the sources of pollution from power generation away from populated areas. The overall negative impact on the climate, however, will not change. Humanity must find a solution for carbon-neutral electricity supply in an extremely short time frame. At first glance this is an enormous task, currently based on existing methods of energy generation. For the dynamics of rising average temperatures, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, the desertification of huge areas and avalanche-like flows of climate refugees cannot be stopped by existing methods. The world needs a new Nikola Tesla to create a technology for “freely available forms of energy”. In this form of energy generation, humanity could see a chance of finally getting an alternative to the use of oil and gas without continuing to cause irreparable damage to the environment.

Many researchers are working on free-energy fuel generators (FGE), but 99% of them focus on generating FGE – “free energy” under the influence of permanent magnets on a rotating flywheel, which requires highly precise adjustment. A lot of work is being done on such prototypes, but so far there is no way to produce them in series; the reasons for this are currently still very diverse.

Although every proposed development for building decentralised power generation is to be welcomed, inventing it is not enough – the generators have to be introduced and produced industrially in series. Introduction can only take place via retail sales to supply individual households. It is naive to hope that “free energy” BTGs (fuel-free generators) will be of interest to large electricity producers in the short term.

There are serious market prospects for “free-energy BTGs” that have no rotating parts and require no constant maintenance. One example is the Neutrino® Power Cubes developed by the Neutrino Energy Group, a research and development company based on neutrinovoltaic technology headed by CEO Holger Thorsten Schubart. The know-how behind the development is a multilayer nanomaterial consisting of alternating layers of graphene and doped silicon applied to a metal foil. An electricity-generating wafer measuring 200 × 300 mm can produce a voltage of 1.5 V and a current of 2 A. Applying a multilayer structure to one side of the foil creates different poles: the coated side has a positive pole and the uncoated side a negative pole. Placed on top of one another and pressed together, the plates form a secure series connection.

It has been scientifically proven that, owing to the peculiarities of its crystal lattice, graphene can only exist permanently in 3D. A group of scientists at the University of Arkansas confirmed and substantiated this in an independent study. The unique phenomenon discovered by the science and technology company Neutrino Energy Group says that graphene-based nanomaterials can become a virtually inexhaustible source of clean energy. The study showed that it is precisely the wave-like vibrations of the graphene film that are this inexhaustible source. A very significant discovery was made – a wave in graphene, like a wave on the surface of the sea, which arises from a combination of small spontaneous movements and leads to larger spontaneous movements. The effect of the thermal Brownian motion of the graphene atoms, together with the effect of particles from the surrounding radiation fields – above all neutrinos, which have mass – adds up with the displacements of other atoms and causes surface waves with horizontal polarisation to appear. In acoustics they are known as Love waves. Owing to the peculiarities of graphene’s crystal lattice, its atoms vibrate as if in tandem. This distinguishes these movements from the spontaneous movements of molecules in liquids.

The Neutrino® Power Cube, which generates a net output of 5–6 kW, will measure approx. 800 × 400 × 600 mm and weigh about 50 kg. The projected net price for series production by the Swiss manufacturer of the Neutrino® Power Cube with a net output of 5–6 kW is given as approx. 11,000 euros. At current electricity and heating prices in the EU, this investment will pay for itself within 2–3 years.

Putting this new technology into practice means the beginning of reforming the energy supply system in favour of new green technologies and the beginning of the process of forming an autonomous, decentralised energy supply system – a decisive factor for the economy of every state and for the well-being of humanity in any crisis situation.

Notes

Energy and heating costs for consumers continue to explode. We are trying to find a shortcut together.

At European level, it seems impossible to establish regulating control mechanisms in the short term, and industry and private households continue to be milked. Because of this increasingly worsening situation, we are trying to convince the management of the Neutrino Group to launch the Power Cube on the market in a version smaller than 5 kW. That would mean lower purchase costs, faster availability for a planned field test and thus a noticeable relief for energy and heating budgets that reaches consumers quickly. We consider local, decentralised generation of energy at the place of consumption and in an immediately consumable size to be the only sensible approach.

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.
