The problem in forecasting an actual use and implementation of 'new hydrogen' technologies is that the first implementation may not look very much like present expectations, based on the past 33 year history... even though one tech has led directly to the other,
It looks to me like the Clean Planet group of Japan is the closest to getting an actual device to market. That factor is the most important detail for us in understanding how an emerging hydrogen economy will materialize. If not Clean Planet (or their licensee) - who else is near market? Mills has true-believers, but still looks hopeless to me - at least for transportation or markets that will get us off of fossil fuel. For one thing CP has the backing of the Japanese automotive industry, and that is HUGE. In the USA, one worrisome thing is that the genius Elon Musk is a no-show. Is he always correct? He would have a stake in BLP if he thought it had a chance. Moreover, the Storms' insight is probably not relevant to the initial product - unless CP is holding back a few details out of concern over IP. Bottom line - it is a mistake to insist that the initial variety of LENR is one which MUST be involve deuterium and palladium. Quantum hydrogen QH uses neither Pd or D2 and its underlying science is still a mystery... yet the results are there for all to see. Yes, the hydrogen-nickel-copper combination - the quantum heat technology, should be considered to be part of the science of LENR despite the apparent lack of nuclear fusion per se (though there could be an unexpected connection which is eventually discovered).
