    I invented a breakthrough energy source which violates the law of energy conservation. I have a PROOF that there are electrodynamic phenomena violating the law of energy conservation. I am looking for $30000 for a prototype and for $3M for patents. In mass production it will cost $1200 to make a 15 kW generator, value of energy produced YEARLY about $10000.

    Oh gee…. I was thinking about solar power’s problems and this very same idea hit my mind, but it’s already been done, as this video shows…. :

  3. Frostlander says:

    Hydrogen is not the answer, converting electrical energy into hydrogen chemical energy and then turning it back into electrical will have a terribly hard time being more efficient than batteries. Instead of researching a solution that’s rife with technical problems why not work on improving a system that’s already developed?

    He didn’t come up with shit!

    i want to knew is the solar system can be use at the commercial real estate like a store type

    Great video…I converted my home to a net-zero solar powered home that uses no oil or gas…I made a video about it called, “Preparing for Peak Oil”….

    great videos. i also find another site that is similar with it.

    @Millz444 lol same

  10. Millz444 says:

    if this is so amazing why have i only seen it on youtube. not only that but while trying to look up a video game…

  11. lordgluzman says:

    So we can make energy power by making hydrogen and mix it up with water?

    I “own” me, but that doesn’t imply that I know everything about how I work. Conversely, claiming to understand that one knows a fraction of how a plant works, doesn’t mean that person owns the plant. I like the idea, but, the physicist said, electrolysis creates further problems that must be overcome, but it IS a step in the right direction.

  13. BabelGut says:

    Great video but don’t ever say you own “shit” they owned you for millions of years bra. But definitely a good find. And people say weed is bad for you “wink wink”.

    love it! i my parents needs to use solar power energy

  15. mariasman100 says:

    Better yet… use unrefined biomass to power efficient external combustion engines, and use waste heat efficiently for space heating, water heating, and even water distillation. Think about it for a while.

    Ultracapacitors.

  17. bobo888bobo says:

    that is great if they found a way to make electrolysis more effective because normally it is terrible. it is also good if you have a need for hydrogen. but they say batteries are expensive and ineffecient? that is wrong.

    I think the idea that solar is no good because it does not run 24hr/ day is silly. we are not going to close down all fossil fuel plants when solar plants are running. how nice will it be to not be polluting whenever the sun shines. much better than now.

  18. MrAstro888 says:

    guess what… look up carbon tax and carbon tax credit… bills, yeah they will never go away till we can live free and free of greed

    The tree are shrinking and expand so can there be some sort of presurizing system? Just like presure-cooker

  20. parnellitube says:

    Solar panels and electrolysis? That’s the breakthrough? I like the animation with all the hydrogen tanks, as if the puny solar panels on your roof could ever fill those up!

  21. LordProphet77 says:

    Nope I would tell them to take their money and shove it. I would give it to the world and I would patient it.

    No, you cannot patent what has already been patented. You cannot get another 20 years of intellectual property years once the time has expired. But it gets worse, you cannot patent a technological innovation once it has already been published or made public. Also methods,ideas theories cannot been patented. It’s got to be a technological innovation that solves a practical problem.
    google
    ipo what is a patent

  23. epshot says:

    Is it possible a company can re-patent something before any one else gets to chance to? and i mean internationally. is it possible that google, after 20 years (which is a long ass time mind you), could patent their espacenet again before you or I or even another corperation has the chance to?

  24. robz40 says:

    Prof Nocera forgets to mention that you cannot extract from the environment more energy with SPECIFC power that is greater than the one available in the envrionmnent at that moment. If you had to use the method described to to supply the US, the installation would cost more than the entire US GDP.

  25. robz40 says:

    Patents are made public and everyone can read them example google espacenet. Intellectual prpoerty on a patent lasts only 20 years and ONLY in the countries where they are filed and approved . Moral of the story: you cannot hide a patent nor stop the production of technological innovation after 20 years everywhere in the world. Conspiracies are the pinnacle of nonsense.
