There seems to be a confluence of events that provide LENR with an unprecedented opportunity to gain wide acceptance and deployment.
Just as war simulated the initial development of nuclear energy, a new commercial and cold war between Russia and the West will stimulate the rapid deployment of the NiH reactor. In the upcoming few years, LENR will be used by western governments as an economic weapon to weaken the Russian economy and reduce the foreign and domestic prerogatives of Putin. This is an ideal opportunity for the first release of the NiH reactor in Europe as a replacement for Russian natural gas, the primary economic weapon to undermine power projection of both the Russian and Iranian governments. LENR will take the energy weapon out of the hands of those who most want to use it. We can expect a fast tracking of the deployment of the NiH reactor in Eastern Europe where Russia has economic leverage through supply of natural gas to these former soviet states. What will Russia and Iran do to counter this attack on their projection of power, their national ambitions, their standard of living, and their international prestige?
