A groundbreaking development in electric vehicle technology has come from Italy. An electric vehicle equipped with the E-Cat power generation system developed by Leonardo Corporation not only maintained its battery during a six-hour test drive but also managed to increase its initial charge. This development could mark the beginning of a revolutionary process in the world of electric cars.
Electric car battery increased while driving
The demonstration, held at the Circuito Internazionale track in Latina, Italy, was conducted on two different Renault Twizy 80 models. The vehicle modified with the E-Cat system showed a remarkable performance compared to the standard model.
At the start of the test, the battery charge of the unmodified vehicle was at 96%, while the E-Cat system vehicle’s charge was at 62.18%. After the six-hour test drive, the E-Cat-equipped vehicle’s battery charge increased to 83%, marking a 33% increase during the drive.
Leonardo Corporation’s E-Cat technology uses a special component called the SKL NGU Power Cell. This cell generates electricity from the zero-point energy field that exists everywhere in the universe, much like how solar panels generate energy from sunlight. A single NGU Power Cell, with a diameter of just 60 mm, can produce 10W of DC electricity continuously for over 10 years without any fuel or external connection.
The tests were verified by electronics engineering expert Maico Marzocchi, who has also installed the same system in his own Renault Twizy. Leonardo Corporation’s CEO Andrea Rossi stated, “We have proven that the E-Cat technology can not only maintain battery charge but also increase it over time.”
The company notes that the E-Cat power generation system can be produced in 10W and 100W capacity modules, which can be combined to reach the desired power level. The system is designed to meet the power needs of homes, businesses, and industrial applications, including lighting, heating, cooling, and powering all kinds of electronic devices.
