solaris writes: From News|Steorn: Dublin, 1st December 2006: Steorn, the technology development
company, today announces that it has finalised and signed contracts
with an independent jury who will test Steorn's free energy technology.
This is the latest milestone in Steorn's efforts to get
validation for its technology, which began when the company issued a
challenge to the world's scientists via an advertisement in the
Economist in August 2006.
Steorn's technology is based on the interaction of magnetic fields
and allows the production of clean, free and constant energy. The
technology can be applied to virtually all devices requiring energy,
from cellular phones to cars.
The Steorn panel was
oversubscribed several times with hundreds of qualified scientists
applying to be part of the jury. The final jury hail from several of
the world's leading academic/scientific institutions and there will be
representation on the panel from the US and several European countries.
The
jury have all agreed to see the testing process through to its
completion and have their names and findings disclosed once the testing
is complete. Steorn has agreed not to identify members of the jury
until the results are made public, to protect their privacy and avoid
unnecessary interruptions to their work.
Sean McCarthy, CEO
of Steorn, commented: "We are very excited to have the contracts in
place with this group of highly qualified individuals, because it means
we can finally get on with the validation stage. We ourselves have
always been confident in the technology but believe that the calibre of
the jury will play an important part in helping us to convince the
sceptics."
Steorn anticipates that testing will begin early
in the New Year. The precise timetable for the testing phase will be
determined by the jurors, as will the location and format of the test
process. Once the testing is complete the results will be made public
via the Steorn website www.steorn.com.
