A no-fuel new device causes one to wonder how it works.
One might be able to use magnets like batteries? Instead of moving a coil through a magnetic field (or vice versa to push electrons down a wire could one use AI switching on and off magnets in some way, like a form of wheel motor can, or a linear electromagnetic accelerator/rail gun, push electrons down a wire? If the amount of electric needed to switch the ‘gates’ on/off were less than the energy that flows because of the field strength it might generate positive electricity surplus. The magnets have stored energy. I wonder why magnets can store energy, how much and for how much time before they wear down. The magnet would be the power source for the system. Maybe one would need to kick start it in a manner of speaking.

Magnets can be used to ‘induce electric currents’. The electromagnetic force is one of the four basic forces of nature as you know. Hence a standing magnetic field is a kind of battery in that it can induce the flow of electrons comprising a current. It is like a standing wave of force that need be discharged by moving through a conducting medium like copper wire to induce electron flow through a medium, rather than storing electrons in a box. I wonder if a magnetic field will run down at a particular rate when used as a force field to push electrons/charged particles. If the inventors have found a way to simulate motion of a medium through a magnetic field with gate switching then they are clever. Magnetism converts one form of energy to another very effectively. It is a force yet has no energy. However a force field is a power- a kind of battery. Photons exist in an electromagnetic field and can be converted to energy with voltaics for example.

Moving that force field is a tool that may be underutilized though it is used for 99% of nuclear, fossil fuel power plant conversion of mass to energy. One might put powerful magnets on some tidal float/barge per example to push electrons as it rises and falls with the tide past some kind of coil. I like the idea a lot of using emg field for something comparable to a battery for storing force to make energy. Kind of like a lighter that isn’t a fire but can be used to ignite a fire if the conditions are right (such as oxygen being present). Exploiting electro-magnetic fields is something I have been interested in for some time in order to deploy vast fields in micro-gravity to accelerate charged modules toward the outer solar system much faster than chemical rockets. It is interesting to consider using a star to power an electromagnetic field of a few million miles in size to push charged modules to perhaps 3/4 the speed of light to Proxima Centauri.
