Rossi's recent story is well explained

Not much more to say, except the demo proves nothing, and past prove more.
anyway,
LENR is a real phenomenon, that frighten people with a career, and
attracts free minds, but also fraudsters and loose minds.
There is
hundred of peer reviewed publication of results, facing only 4 real
critics, by Lewis, Hansen, Morrison, and Wilson, with all 4 refuted
(Wilson, refute Lewis and Hansen with basic calorimetry expertise.
Morrison is not even bad full of absurdity, and Wilson is the only
competent and only propose a minor correction not refuting big results).
Charles
Beaudette in the book "Excess Heat" makes a good synthesis of the
situation (which did not much change, since early replicators wore
already aged and are now old or dead, and all serious young where
deterred to study the domain).
Today there is a huge corpus of experiments of various quality, some great, some bad.
There
are many entrepreneur and inventors claiming much. the only one that
attracted my interest is Brillouin energy corps, whose claims are modest
and realists.
Miley, some Russian labs, Swartz-Hagelstein, have
interesting results, but my position today is that we need "an
explanation" like what Edmund Storms states.
Science is based on
observation, but without some hypothesis it is hard to know when you
simply failed an experiment, when you refute something, when you suceed,
when you replicate another experiment.
The errors of first LENR
critics was to apply the theory of hot plasma fusion to a lattice
environnement. Evidence today supports the idea that LENR is a
collective quantum phenomenon in localized structures near the surface
of hydrides, like is superconduction or laser. There is a great need of
serious research, exploiting the mass of available results.
However
it is very hard, in today's context, for scientists to work with a
serious budget on that theme. Moreover the few maverick scientists are
unable to seriously replicate other's results (some did like George
Lonchampt of CEA from Fleishman, like Uni Tsignghua, Biberian, Nasa GRC,
whi replicated Fralick 89, takahashi who replicated iwamura), and don't
have access to modern instruments.
This is the challenge the LENR domain have to face...
I
have concrete hope, and this may be in that least probable place for
me, where you can make the planet great again and enjoy sunny winter. If
the mindguards don't catch us before.
I've answered with others,
some Quora questions (my opinion is not the most- interesting) and cited
many resource (this is the real value of the answers)

About Rossi,
I don't want to be sued for telling the facts, so read the facts yourself.
the data leaked from the trial against Industrial heat talk alone.
anyway,
beside my own opinion of someone who followed the story, we don't need
any inventors with a machine, if there is no working theory that allows
engineers to optimize the technology. We need basic science, first.
For the engineering, trust the market.
by Stephen Hanley (PlanetSave.com): Nikola Tesla, the enigmatic Serb who led the world to a deeper understanding of electricity, once said, “Ere many generations pass, our machinery will be driven by a power obtainable at any point in the universe.” His inquiry into what is called “zero point energy” has baffled physicists ever since. Is there a force — as yet unknown — that could power the world cheaply and efficiently, freeing us all from the tyranny of fossil fuel companies, nuclear power proponents, and greedy utility companies? A small device that would heat our homes or power our vehicles for little or no money?
