Es scheint schwer vorstellbar, dass an einer der Anschriften der Leonardo Corp. die Herstellung von Rossi-Energiekatalysatoren erfolgen kann, geschweige denn dort ein 1-MW-Kraftwerk errichtet werden könnte.

Im Juni 2011 machte der US-amerikanische Rechtsanwalt David Niebauer aus San Francisco in seinem Blog bekannt, dass er sich mit Rossi getroffen habe. Rossi habe erklärt, dass er immer noch auf der Suche nach einem Partner zur Realisierung eines 1 MW-Kleinkraftwerks in den USA zu sein. Zudem habe er der US-amerikanischen NASA angeboten ein derartiges Kraftwerk von ihm zu kaufen. Dies wäre die Voraussetzung dafür, daß die (von Steuergeldern finanzierte) NASA seinen Ecat prüfen könne.<ref>Rossi Energy Catalyzer, "The New Fire"?<br>Posted on June 10, 2011 by David Niebauer<br>by David Niebauer<br><br>I have just finished listening to an astounding podcast of an interview with Dennis Bushnell, Chief Scientist at NASA’s Langley Research Center, talking about low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) and devices that are apparently generating significant energy in the form of heat, with very little input of raw material and no radioactive waste.<br>Bushnell makes reference to Andrea Rossi, an Italian inventor who claims to have discovered a previously unknown source of energy by combining pressurized nickel powder with hydrogen and a catalyst.  Rossi has filed for international patent protection, but he is guarding the precise mechanism as a trade secret until the patent issues.<br>I first heard of Andrea Rossi in January of this year on the site Next Big Future where it was reported that Rossi had demonstrated his Energy Catalyzer (or E-Cat, for short) in Bologna, monitored by independent scientific representatives of Bologna University.  Ny Teknik, a Swedish technology magazine, reported that, “For about an hour it produced approximately 10 kilowatts of net power, loaded with one gram of nickel powder pressurized with hydrogen.
