The following is a post made on the Journal of Nuclear Physics today by Maico Marzocchi, who collaborated with Andrea Rossi in modifying his own Renault Twizy so it could be powered by Rossi’s E-Cat NGU, and demonstrated on Sept 27th at the racetrack in Latina.
Rossi has stated that E-Cat generator used in the Twizy was rated at 3 kW, and consisted of 300 10 W E-Cat units. The post below includes some videos and a photograph taken at the testing site, which was in Genoa, Italy. The videos are now posted on the Leonardo Corp. YouTube channel.

Dear Dr. RossiThis last year and a half dedicated to the preparation and execution of the E-Cat EV Demo has certainly been a very demanding period for both of us.
It is undeniable that the demonstration of September 27, 2024 has had and is having a great success. I must say that letting to that September 27, starting from 0 (at least for the Twizy) was not “a linear evolution”.
Starting from hypotheses, we tried to transform ideas into practice, not always successfully but certainly getting a little closer to the Goal.
There have also been very difficult and dramatic moments (the critical event that led to the cancellation of the October 2023 demonstration), but it is precisely in moments like these that the “Phoenix” can rise from its own ashes. Never was a comparison more appropriate :)).
That “critical and difficult moment” gave birth to the most “resilient” version of E-Cat ever, namely the NGU version (even in this case, a NAME was never more appropriate).When at the beginning of September 2024 we met for the Static Integration tests (in my box on Friday and on the roller bench on Saturday), I was very sure that the mutual work done up to that moment on “our own creatures” would have created a “successful symbiosis”!!! ….and so it was 😉
I remember as if it were today the wonderful feeling I felt when I saw what we had achieved, it had taken a year and a half but it was ALL TRUE!!!
I don’t think I’m reporting anything hard to believe, or even confidential, saying that at the end of those 2 days, exciting and exhilarating, you too were particularly happy and enthusiastic about what your E-Cat together with my Twizy were able to do 😉
I took the liberty of attaching to this message some testimonies of that day. Up until now, videos of the Saturday tests had never been published (only photographs), I’m sure that those who follow you will be happy to be able to live “with Us” that day that I would define as Historic.
That “Friday and Saturday” were 2 “Private” days, but on September 27th, the day of the “public” demonstration we shared with the world what your E-Cat is able to do and that is, Wonderful Things!!!
Below is what was anticipated
and below is the moment when “completely satisfied and happy” with what we had achieved, we “sealed” the culmination of our collaboration in the E-Cat project EV
we still had to do the Demonstration of September 27th, the tension and nervousness were still a lot, but we knew that “technically” we had already “tried everything”, we just had to repeat on a racetrack what we had tried on a roller bench 😉
I hope with this testimony I have managed to transfer to those who follow it what We have lived and felt in the last 78 weeks
They have been weeks of hard work, so much dedication, so much anxiety, but the satisfaction, the joy, the exaltation that we felt at the end of that September 27th is something that at least I but I think also You “will carry with me/we will carry” always in our Heart 😉Regards
Ciao Maico
