Abstract

Highlights of the Fifth International Conference on Cold Fusion (ICCF5) are reviewed. A live demonstration system from Clean Energy Technologies Inc. showed 300% to 1,000% excess energy. Wide-ranging positive results in both excess heat and nuclear products were reported from E-Quest, U. Milan, Osaka National U., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, NTT, the Japanese National Laboratory for High Energy Physics (KEK), Los Alamos, BARC, Amoco Production Company, Shell Oil, Harwell Laboratory (in retrospect!), and others. An electrical engineer from Bechtel Corporation gave a superb talk on the economic and technical aspects of the commercial development of cold fusion energy.
