This Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) covers basic queries about New Energy science and developing technologies. The revolutionary New Energy field concerns spectacular new sources of energy that have achieved substantial validation in laboratories around the world, but which are not yet accepted by the scientific establishment. We welcome you to make your own judgment about what constitutes substantial validation and why the scientific establishment does not yet accept New Energy in its various forms, but please do perform your own examination of the important evidence that is gathered at this and other referenced New Energy websites and publications. Despite the great accomplishments of modern official science, we have concluded that its organizations and journals are significantly mired in obsolete science and technology paradigms that are holding back progress; we hope that you will come to appreciate this. (If, in fact, that is not your opinion already!) The existence of New Energy R&D around the world and its under-reporting and mis-characterization by the "mainstream" scientific media is evidence of a profound paradigm paralysis.
If you are new to the New Energy field, you may find the information here particularly helpful. We will continue to review and modify this FAQ to include responses to common questions from our visitors. If you have a question and the answer isn't here, please ask us and we'll try to answer you if the question brings up new thoughts not already addressed in this FAQ. Please understand that we cannot respond to all of our e-mail, due to limited staff time! For the most comprehensive information on current research, published papers, patents, business developments, outside media coverage, and government actions (and inaction), we recommend subscribing to Infinite Energy magazine. By subscribing— or purchasing Infinite Energy magazine at one of many newsstands in the United States and Canada, you will be helping to increase support for this field. You may download a free selection of Infinite Energy articles [Download Selection of Articles (.pdf)] to give you an idea of what we cover and how we report on it. Infinite Energy is published by the non-profit New Energy Foundation, Inc., which is based in Concord, New Hampshire. We hope that this FAQ and the free selection of articles will encourage you to subscribe to Infinite Energy and to contribute charitably (and tax-deductibly) to our efforts.
