1. Introduction
ECD Energy Corp has a patent pending for a new type of energy device like none before it. The company
calls it a "Electro-kinetic Combination Dive" (ECD). The ECD converts sub-atomic electro-kinetic energy
generated by the sinuous form of electrons within an atomically aligned conductive material into
electricity. We view our invention as a true gift to "We the People" that will revolutionize and set a new
paradigm for the energy industry.
One day, we see a miniaturized ECD device powering the hand-held smart phone or the computer that
you are reading this website on and it will never have to be charged.
But, how many times have we all heard about a new energy device or invention and then it simply
disappears?
Well, it took a while to take its form, but we think that we have finally managed to find a fantastic solution
to ensure that our device gets in the hands of "We the People", therein guaranteeing that everyone can
benefit from this technology.
Instead of drawing from the institutional, private investors or venture capitalist and possible losing control
of our invention, we chose to take a different road to build the initial devices. Our solution is a reward-
based crowd funding campaign (See section 2. herein) that will directly grant the "We the People"
contributors a right of ownership to the very first residential devices manufactured. The process will
include the immediate receipt of a digital title to the contributor's to-be-manufactured device.
1.1. Understanding the Field of the Invention.
Have you ever watched a visible force of
unbelievable energy such as a lightning
storm and thought what if we could only
harvest energy from such an event?
Well, this invention harvests energy from
the very atomic forces that create such
unbelievable events as lightning and to
comprehend how together we must go on
a brief journey of understanding.
The understanding that energy, along with
matter, constitutes the basis of all
phenomena that takes place in the
universe.
We shall begin by discovering what things
are made of. We will investigate the atom,
the smallest unit of matter, as well as the fundamental particles that it is made up of. We will explore how
and why things move, as well as the forces that are required to put things in motion.

Along this journey, we will learn of ways to multiply forces and facilitate certain types of work that would
otherwise be burdensome, or even outright impossible, for a single human being to perform.
Together we will conclude our journey of understanding with an essential review of many types of energy
sources currently available, along with their advantages and disadvantages.
Our Journey Now Begins
Democritus, a Greek philosopher born in the middle of the
fifth century B.C., had a brilliant idea: it occurred to him that
all things were made up of small indivisible particles, which
he called atoms.
Around the same time, other Greek philosophers decided
that all things were the result of the combination of four
basic elements: earth, air, water, and fire.
Today, we know that atoms are divided and that the matter
that surrounds us is a combination of many different natural
elements. We continue to gain a deeper understanding of
the structure of matter and the way in which atoms
combine.
Matter
Anything that takes up space and has a certain Mass
is considered to be matter.
According to this definition, matter is something
perceptible to human senses, without leaving out
that which cannot be seen or touched, such as air or
subatomic particles. It includes any physical entity in
the universe that can be measured.
In addition, it has been known since Albert Einstein,
a twentieth-century scientific icon, that matter and
energy are interchangeable, as given by his famous
equation E=MC2.

Atoms
In the classical definition (which considers anything that has mass to be matter) matter is composed of
atoms and appears in three fundamental states of aggregation: solid, liquid and gas. Different types of
matter possess different properties that make them useful for certain applications. For example, copper is
a good conductor of current but plastics are not. For a long time, the atom was thought to be the
elementary and indivisible particle of the universe, but it has now lost that label.
Today it is well known that atoms are
made up of smaller particles, which in
turn, can be subdivided into even
smaller, more primordial particles.
The atom, however, continues to be
considered the smallest part of a
chemical element that preserves the
properties of that element.
For example, a gold atom is the smallest
particle that maintains the properties of
gold. If a gold atom was divided, the
resulting protons, neutrons, and
electrons would not differ in any way
from those that make up the atoms of,
let's say yourself.
These three types of particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) differ from one another, in particular, by
the type of electric charge they have. The first two (protons and neutrons) form the atomic nucleus. The
nucleus is made up of protons (with a positive charge [+1]) and neutrons (with a neutral charge.) There
are typically about the same number of protons as neutrons. Electrons orbit the nucleus, and their charge
is negative (-).
They are much smaller than protons and neutrons; about 1,840 electrons collectively would have the
same mass as one proton. The electrons orbit in two shells located at different distances from the
nucleus. The first and closest shell accepts only up to two electrons. The second and outer shell accepts
up to eight electrons. The forces that keep the electrons orbiting the nucleus are called electromagnetic.
An electrically neutral atom would have as many orbiting -electrons as protons in its nucleus because the
charges equalize. A charged (positively or negatively) atom is considered unstable. For an atom to be
stable, it must have eight electrons in its outer valence shell. This is the case with noble gases, which are
not very reactive with other atoms (the naturally occurring noble gases are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton,
Xenon, and Radon.)

Atomic Bonds
When the number of valence shell electrons differs from eight, atoms try to obtain, give up, or share
electrons with other atoms, in order for each to have eight valence electrons. In the process, they form
bonds and therefore, create molecules with new properties.
An ionic bond is generated when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, which occurs in
general between metals and non-metals. Table salt, the union of chlorine and sodium, is a good example.
Sodium has one electron in its valence shell, unlike chlorine, which has seven. When sodium gives up its
electron to chlorine, it is stabilized because its new Outermost shell will have eight electrons.
However, it will remain positively charged. Chlorine, in exchange, obtains the electron it lacks to complete
the eight in its valence shell and becomes negatively charged. The opposite charges attract and the union
is sealed.
A covalent bond is when atoms join together but do not lose or gain electrons; instead, they share them.
This is the case for carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and methane (CH4). Carbon dioxide, a gas we
exhale, consists of one atom of carbon with four electrons in its valence shell and two atoms of oxygen,
which each have six valence electrons. Thus, each atom of carbon shares two of its valence electrons with
each atom of oxygen, and all three obtain the eight atoms for their outermost energy level.
A Metallic bond occurs between the metallic elements. Here, the electrons are not gained, lost, or hared;
rather, they float freely in a kind of sea of electrons. This characteristic is what permits metals to be good
conductors of electric current: electric current is nothing other than a current of electrons.

Manifestations of Energy: Force
We live in a world in motion and for there to be motion,
there must be forces that generate a series of effects.
Although the word force usually brings to mind a
powerful locomotive or a weight lifter in the midst of a
competition, to physicists this concept must be defined
in terms of any interaction capable of moving an object
at rest or changing the velocity or direction of an object
already in motion.
Understanding the concept of force and determining its
nature and how it functions were great unsolved
mysteries until the end of the seventeenth century
when Isaac Newton wrote what is considered the first
modern definition of this phenomenon.
Newton’s Laws
Newton's first law states that an object remains at rest or in motion
without changing state unless an outside force acts on it.
Newton's second law states that upon applying a force, an object
changes its state (from rest to motion, a change in direction or in
speed) and that the change is related to the strength of the force. The
third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction.
Today we recognize a Newton as a unit to measure force. A Newton is
equivalent to the force that when applied to a mass of 1 kilogram,
experiences an acceleration of 1 meter per second per second (s 2).
Anatomy of a Push
A basic example of force acting on an object would be a cue
stick striking a cue ball at rest, imparting a force that results
in motion. The cue ball does the same thing with the other
balls after colliding with them. In the game of pool, the
forces are “contact forces,” because contact is necessary in
order for there to be any interaction between the object and
the force. Magnetism and Gravity, on the other hand, can be
defined as noncontact forces, or forces that act at a
distance.

Combining and Balancing Forces
Forces can be combined and balanced to
generate different effects. When balancing, the
strongest forces prevail, although they are
perturbed by the action of others.
An arm wrestling tournament is a good example
of balancing forces; the wrestler that applies the
most force with his arm is the winner. And thanks
to the combination of different forces, a sailboat
can travel windward (that is, in the direction from
which the wind is blowing.)
Fundamental Forces
Physicists, concerned with describing the basic forces of
nature, discovered four fundamental interactions with
matter that cannot be broken down into other simple
ones; Gravity, Electromagnetic, Strong Nuclear Force
and Weak Nuclear Force.
Electromagnetic, Strong Nuclear Force and Weak
Nuclear Force are all forces on an atomic or subatomic
level. Electromagnetic is the force that links the
electrons to the atomic nuclei and it is what gives
structure to material. Strong Nuclear Force is what
keeps the protons and neutrons together within the atomic nucleus. Weak Nuclear Force is a force that
acts on a subatomic level-within the proton and neutrons and it is purely an attractive force.
Motion
From atoms to stars and planets, the entire universe is in a
constant state of motion. However, it took thousands of
years for humans to comprehend this phenomenon and
postulate the first laws that explain it; which were born from
the acute Observation of Isaac Newton. An object needs a
force to change its motion.
An object in motion follows a trajectory, which depends on
the type of forces that act over it. When an object’s velocity
varies, we call this “acceleration.” If the variation has a
constant value, then the motion is “uniformly accelerated,”
or “uniformly decelerated” if the variation is negative. An object on the surface of the Earth would
experience a force (resistance) that is produced by its contact with the air; this is called friction. This
object’s horizontal velocity would decrease from this resistance, as its vertical velocity increases from the
Earth’s gravitational force of attraction.

ECD Energy Corp 2020 6
Friction
When two bodies come into contact, frictional forces are
generated between them that act as resistance to the
motion.
Thanks to these forces, your shoes grip the floor, car
brakes function, and we are able to grasp objects with our
hands. Because friction turns the kinetic energy of bodies
into heat, we can strike a match.
Objects cannot change their state of rest or Motion by
themselves; they require an outside force to do so. This
property is termed “inertia.” Therefore, in a vacuum (such
as space) away from any masses, an object in motion would
conserve its motion indefinitely.
Circular Motion
16.6 miles per second is the velocity at which the Earth
travels through space relative to the Sun. However,
thanks to inertia, we hardly notice it. This circular motion
is easily observed in car wheels and in ceiling fans.
An object on the surface of the circle is attracted to the
center of the circle, which forces it to constantly change
direction. This attractive force that pulls an object toward
the center is called “centripetal force." An object in a
circular motion also experiences a "centrifugal force"
that, contrary to the centripetal force, gives the
impression of propelling it outside the circle. However, in
reality, this is not a force but inertia.
Machines
Simple machines are simple and ingenious, and they
ease daily chores. They are plentiful in any Mechanical
device that has mechanical components, and they start
with a basic premise: they must be capable of modifying
forces by magnifying them, decreasing them, or changing
their sense of direction.
However, because of the law of conservation of energy,
the energy input to a machine will be exactly equal to
the output, although likely distributed differently.

Multiplying Forces
The simple act of riding a bicycle implies making use of a
series of simple machines, such as “gears” that allow us, by
barely moving our feet, to travel at a speed much greater
than we could reach by running.
Gears are especially useful for magnifying or decreasing a
force, as well as for changing its direction. If a toothed gear is
meshed with another one with more teeth, then the second
one will turn more slowly, but with less effort.In a bicycle,
this gear relationship is used to go uphill. The bicycle feels
“lighter” but requires more pedaling not to lose speed. If a
toothed gear is meshed with another one with fewer teeth,
then the second one will turn faster, but it will require more
effect.
Cyclists use this relationship to achieve greater speeds with less pedaling, although the bicycle feels
“heavier.” When force is applied to an axle, as in the case of bicycles, the speed is multiplied because the
edge of the wheels spin faster. With each turn of the axle, the wheel will travel a greater distance because
it has a greater circumference. If the force is applied to the edge of the wheel, then it becomes possible to
multiply the force at the axle. Ninety percent is a bicycle’s energy efficiency ratio: that is to say, the
percentage of energy that is converted into useful work. That of an automobile is only 25 percent.
Complex Machine
A complex machine is a machine that is made up of more
than one simple machine.
In the bicycle, for example, we can find multiple simple
machines such as gears, axles, pulleys, and wheels that
optimize the bicycle's performance.
Energy
The universe’s energy is a unified force and it is never lost. It can only
adopt different forms, be transformed, and even remain latent,
manifesting itself under certain conditions-, as in the case of an object
suspended in air that is then suddenly dropped. Light, heat, and
electricity are some of the forms in which energy is manifested. In the
functioning of each subatomic particle and of each living being, in the
occurrence of any terrestrial or atmospheric event, regardless of its
scale, energy performs an essential role. However, it is not a thing, not
something tangible.
In general, when people speak of energy, they are really referring to its
visible effects, such as light, heat, or motion. Energy, moreover cannot

be created or destroyed. It only changes form; it is transformed. To better understand it, it is possible to
classify it according to the characteristics by which it manifests itself.
Mechanics of Motion
The concept of mechanical energy arises from the study of
objects from the standpoint of their position and velocity.
This energy is basically the sum of two others: kinetic
energy and potential energy.
Kinetic Energy
Objects in motion possess kinetic energy, in as much as
they are capable of producing movement, that is to say,
of moving other bodies.
The magnitude of an object's kinetic energy depends on
the object's mass and velocity. The greater the mass and
velocity, the greater the kinetic energy.

Potential Energy
Potential energy is the energy stored in a system or the energy that the
system is capable of delivering. Potential energy is also related to an object's
position.
At rest, a stone possesses a given potential energy, which increases if it is
suspended above the ground. The same thing occurs with the ends of a
spring when they are pulled apart, as the spring stretches, its potential
energy increases.

Electro-kinetic Energy
Some metals, such as copper and
iron, have the capacity for generating
noncontact forces of attraction and
repulsion, a characteristic you may
know as magnetism.
The particles that make up an object
are usually aligned randomly and the
atomic forces (charges) cancel each
other. By aligning all of the particles
in the same direction, a conductive
object will generate a magnetic force.
A magnetic object generates an electro-kinetic energy field around itself with two poles, a positive pole (+)
and a negative pole (-). These poles represent the areas where the maximum forces concentrate. Poles
with the same sign tend to repel each other, and those with different signs tend to attract each other.
This phenomenon has a microscopic origin (it arises from the spin of electrons within atoms) but it has an
impact on a very big level. In fact, the Earth behaves like a huge magnet. The iron core and the currents of
molten rock flowing underneath the Earth’s crust generate a magnetic field around the planet. The
precise mechanism by which this field is produced continues to be a mystery to humankind. For centuries,
magnets were considered magical objects. Only relatively recently has science been able to reveal their
secrets.
Since the late nineteenth century, the phenomenon of magnetism has found countless applications in
diverse fields. Diagnostic methods such as Magnetic Resonance (MRI) and Computerized Axial
Tomography (CAT), which have revolutionized medicine, are based on the principles of magnetism.
The magnetic levitation train (MAGLEV) moves without touching the rails, thanks to the repulsion caused
between two like magnetic poles. This allows the train to travel at high speeds (greater than 370 miles per
hour.) The intimate relationship between magnetism and electricity made possible the development of
the telephone, the television, the radio, and a great number of electric devices used today.

Electricity
Few disruptions to daily life exist that are comparable to a blackout of
electricity. In the absence of electric lights, a working refrigerator,
televisions, desktop computers, or air conditioning a blackout is
probably the only time in which we truly stop taking energy for granted
and take a moment to realize the importance of one of the most
common types of energy in the world. The phenomenon known as
electricity originates at the atomic level and has to do with the
behavior and movement of free electrons (electrons separated from
the atomic nucleus) in certain media. Understanding electricity begins
with describing its effects.
One way to begin is to examine interactions that occur when electricity
is at rest or static electricity. Static electricity can be seen at work when
long hair is combed on a cold, dry day. As the comb is pulled through the
hair, strands of hair standout stiffly. Some kind of force seems to pull the
hair upward and toward the comb.
As explained above, in an atom there is an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively
charged electrons, and such an atom is said to be neutral. If a neutral atom loses one or more of its
electrons, it has an excess number of protons and it becomes positively charged. If a neutral atom gains
one or more electrons, it has an excess number of electrons and it becomes negatively charged.
How does this simple atomic model relate to the hair, the
comb, and static electricity? With the right conditions
when your hair is combed, the hair loses electrons and
the comb gains them, producing hair that is positively
charged and a comb that is negatively charged. The
combing action (friction) created charged objects
because it tears electrons loose from your hair and
transfers them to the comb. This is called electron
capture, (the process in which an atom or ion passes
through a material medium and either loses or gains one
or more orbital electrons). One of the most prolific minds
in history belongs to Benjamin Franklin, who was a
politician, printer, journalist, inventor and a founding
father of the United States of America as well as a pioneer in the study of electricity. He is remembered as
the scientist behind the famous experiment that demonstrated that lightning is an electric discharge and
that clouds are charged with electricity. A discovery he made when he lifted a metal kite during a lightning
storm.
Today we know that inside stormy clouds called cumulonimbus clouds, ice particles that are constantly in
movement are often electrically charged by friction with each other. In a cloud, the positively charged
particles tend to be located at the upper levels of the cloud and the negatively charged particles move to
the base of the cloud.
Sometimes a powerful discharge is produced between the base of the cloud, which is negatively charged,
and the Earth’s surface, which is positively charged. We have labeled this phenomenon as lightning.

Conductors and Insulators
Materials can be classified as either capable or incapable
of conducting electricity. Remember that within atoms of
conductor materials, electrons are weakly joined with
their nucleus.
This makes it easy for these electrons to flow as electric
energy. In insulators, the bond between the nucleus and
the electrons of the atoms is strong. For this reason, the
flow of electrons is either much more complex or simply
does not occur.
Electric Current
Much like water flowing in a river, running freely from
one point to another, free electrons will flow through
conductor materials and manifest themselves in the
form of energy. When a difference of potential energy is
applied between the ends of a conductor, freed
electrons will flow, thus generating electric current.
In other words, a negatively charged terminal with an
excess of electrons compared with a positively charged
terminal that is lacking in electrons produces a difference
in electron potential energy (an attractive force.)
When the terminals are connected via a conductor, the excess electrons will flow (transfer) to the
terminal that lacks electrons, thus generating the electron current that we call "electricity." This current
allows electricity to be transported for subsequent distribution and use in electrical devices.
Electric current flows through a conductor in two ways: as a direct current or as an alternating current. In
direct current, electrons flow in one direction.
Today, this type of current is common in electric devices fed by batteries. In alternating current, the
polarity of its terminals is repeatedly reversed (alternated)within the generator.

Electric Post’ by icon0.com
Electric Current Flow is Often Depicted or Described as Water Flow ‘‘Timelapse Photography of Lake’ by Taras Makarenko
ECD Energy Corp 2020 12
Circuits
In order for electricity to flow and be readily available whenever it
is needed at outlets throughout our homes (or each time a device
powered by batteries required it), it is transported by means of a
circuit with no breaks or interruptions along the way.
Thus, the electric current travels in a loop. All along this loop,
the electric current powers electric devices and encounters diverse
mechanisms capable of modifying the electrical energy.
Electric Units
There are many units for measuring electricity. An Ampere is
used to measure the strength of an electric current, that is,
the quantity of electrons moving through a given part of the
circuit per second. The Volt is used to measure electric
potential, that is, the electromotive force derived from the
potential difference between the negative and positive poles
in a circuit. A Watt is the power generated from a potential
difference of one volt and an electric current of one ampere.
In the United States, power is delivered to residential homes
as alternating current. For example, when a lamp is switched
on, electrons (vibrate) back and forth within the filament to
create light. The electrons that move in the filament are not
the same electrons that were deflected in the generator at
the power plant.
When the lamp is turned on, it lights up instantly because the electric field produced in the generator loop
travels through the circuit at close to the speed of light, roughly 300 million meters per second. As the
field passes along the conductor, electrons in the conductor interact with the field. It is the electric energy
carried by the field that moves the electrons in the circuit. It is energy, not the charge that flows from the
electrical outlet in your home. The electric charges that move in the lamp are already in the lamp. Thus
electric companies bill you not for electrons but for electrical energy. The charges on an electric bill are
based on Kilowatt-hours (1,000-watt-hours.) A kilowatt is a unit of power or energy consumed per time
unit. So a kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy.
Today the definition of a “Generator” is any machine by which mechanical power is transformed into
electric power, this invention will alter that definition. Although limited amounts of electricity can be
generated by many means, today electric power generation generally implies large scale production of
electricity in stationary plants. The generating units in these plants convert mechanical energy from falling
water, coal, petroleum, natural gas, and nuclear fuel to electric energy. Most of today’s large electric
generators are driven either by hydraulic turbines, for conversion of falling water energy, or by steam or
gas turbines, for conversion of nonrenewable fuel energy resources.

Sources of Energy
Since the invention of the steam engine, humans have relied more and more on nonrenewable sources of
energy, especially coal, petroleum, and natural gas; the reserves of which are limited. To a lesser extent,
they have made use of renewable resources, such as water power from rivers to produce electricity,
which nevertheless comes at a cost to the environment. Thus, one of the greatest challenges of today is
how to obtain energy in an economical, safe, and clean way from renewable sources. Besides the
importance of availability, the impact that sources of energy produce on the environment counts a great
deal. The non-renewable sources of energy coal, petroleum, and natural gas make up eighty one percent
of the world's production of energy. Their consumption on such a massive scale contributes to the
greenhouse effect.
Coal and Petroleum
Coal and petroleum are the main energy sources in the developed world.
They come from ancient organic deposits that have been buried in the
bowels of the Earth for hundreds of millions of years.
Petroleum’s pure state is called crude oil, which is a mixture of different
hydrocarbons of little use. Hence, the oil must first be distilled to separate
its components. These resources, which pollute the atmosphere when
burned, are available only in limited reserves.

ECD Energy Corp 2020 14
Natural Gas
After petroleum, natural gas slowly rose to a position of
importance in the global balance of energy sources
because of its availability and efficiency. It has a
reputation of being the cleanest fossil fuel. Technological
advances, especially in the discovery of deposits, have
produced an explosion in the reserve statistics in the last
15 years. These developments have been accompanied
by an ever-increasing dependency on natural gas in
different parts of the planet. Natural gas is known as "the
phantom energy" because it is a colorless, odorless fluid
that contains between seventy to ninety percent
methane, the component that makes it useful as a
source of energy.
Biofuels
Gasoline or diesel with added alcohol (ethanol)
produced from crops such as corn appears more and
more promising as solutions to the problems posed
by the eventual exhaustion of the Earth's coal and
petroleum reserves, as well as the high cost of fossil
fuels on the global markets. However, this type of
energy presents new challenges. One item of
environmental concern is the possibility that massive
exploitation of biofuels could lead to the
replacement of jungles and woodlands with single
crop plantations meant only for the production of
raw plant materials.
Ethanol is the alcohol in the medicine cabinets of our homes. It can be used in its pure form as fuel or
combined with gasoline in different proportions. Two common mixtures are EIO and E85, which have 10
percent and 85 percent ethanol, respectively. 70 percent of the world’s ethanol production is accounted
for by Brazil and the United States. In Brazil, ethanol is made from sugarcane, and in the USA, it is made
from corn.
Biodigesters
A biodigester is when anaerobic bacteria (bacteria that does
not require oxygen to live) decompose organic material
through processes such as rotting and fermentation, they
release biogas that can be used as an energy resource for
heating and for generating electricity. They also create mud
with very high nutritional value, which can be used in
agriculture or fish production. This technology appears
promising as an energy alternative and laboratory tests
have demonstrated that the bio digestion process kills up
to eighty-five percent of the harmful pathogenic agents

present in the organic waste, pathogens which would otherwise be released into the environment. Biogas
contains about fifty-five to seventy percent methane, its energy-producing component.

Today another efficient method for obtaining
electric energy is through a controlled nuclear
reaction. The nuclei of certain atoms, like uranium
235, can be broken apart when bombarded by
neutrons. In doing so, they release great amounts
of energy and new neutrons that can break down
the nuclei of other atoms, generating a chain
reaction called nuclear fission.
To achieve the breakdown of the nucleus, the
neutrons must collide at a specific speed, which is
governed by a moderating substance, such as
water, heavy water, or graphite.
The purpose of nuclear fission is to create very hot steam to operate turbines and electrical generators.
The high temperatures are achieved by using nuclear energy from the reactor. Although this technology
has been used for half a century, it continues to be at the center of debate because of the risks it poses to
the environment and health and because of the vast amounts of highly toxic waste it creates.
Hydroelectric Energy
About 20 percent of the world's electricity is generated by
the force of rivers through the use of hydroelectric power
plants. The kinetic energy of rivers is transformed into
mechanical energy by turbines and then into electrical
energy by generators.
This technology, which has been used since the
nineteenth century, employs a renewable, non-polluting
resource, although the technology's impact on the
environment is high.
According to the United Nations, two third of the world’s
hydroelectric potential is currently being used, especially
in North America and Europe.

Solar Energy
The harnessing of solar energy to produce
electricity and heat for everyday use is gaining
popularity. Applications of this clean, unlimited
form of energy range from charging batteries in
telecommunications satellites, to public
transportation, all the way to the solar
households being built in greater numbers
throughout the world. Photovoltaic Energy, the
energy obtained from sunlight, requires the use
of solar or photovoltaic cells. The energy is
essentially formed by a thin layer of
semiconductor material (silicon, for example),
where the photovoltaic effect (the transformation
of light into electrical energy) takes place. The sun shines on the cell where energetic photons (sunlight)
move (vibrates) electrons and make them jump to the illuminated face of the cell. The negatively charged
electrons generate a negative terminal on the illuminated face and leave an empty space in the now
positively charged dark face (the positive terminal).
Once the circuit is closed, there is a constant flow of electrons (electric current) from the negative
terminal to the positive one. The current is maintained as long as the Sun illuminates the cell. Another use
of sunlight is as a source for heating water as well as for heating homes. In this case, solar collectors are
used; unlike photovoltaic cells, the solar collectors do not produce electric energy. The collectors work
using the greenhouse effect: It absorbs the heat from the sun and then prevents this heat from being lost.
In doing so, it warms a pipe, through which the fluid (water or gas) flows, which in turn heats a water tank.
The water from the tank is ready for domestic use of heating.
Wind Energy
In recent years one of the most promising
renewable energy resources is the use of wind
to produce electricity by driving enormous wind
turbines (windmill).
The turbines convert the wind into electrical
energy through the use of simple technology
based on mechanical gears. The wind moves the
blades of the wind turbine, producing
mechanical energy, which is then converted into
electrical energy. Eolic power is an
inexhaustible, clean, non-polluting source of
energy with some disadvantages. The most
important disadvantages are our inability to
predict precisely the force and direction of the
wind and the negative impact that groups of large
towers have on the local landscape.

Geothermal Energy
Geothermal energy is another clean and
promising source of energy. The first
geothermal plant started operating more than
One hundred years ago. Geothermal plants
generate electricity from the heat that
emanates from the Earth’s interior.
Geothermal power plants, however, suffer
from some limitations, such as the fact that
they must be constructed in regions with high
volcanic activity. The possibility of this kind of
plant becoming defunct due to a reduction in
such volcanic activity is always present, along
with the obvious dangers of such technology.
Hydrogen
Some people consider hydrogen fuel cells the
energy source of the future and predict that in the
short term it will gain widespread use in place of
fossil fuels. Hydrogen fuel cells produce electricity
from the energy released during the chemical
reaction of combining hydrogen and oxygen. In the
cell, hydrogen collects at the anode and oxygen at
the cathode. A catalyst separates the hydrogen
electrons from their nuclei. Hydrogen nuclei cross
the electrolytic layer without their electrons. Freed
electrons, which cannot cross the electrolytic layer,
flow through the circuit until they reach the
cathode, thereby producing electric current.
The by-products of the process are water and heat, the reaction continues as long as fuel is supplied.
Among the advantages of hydrogen-based energy are its very low pollution level and its inexhaustibility (it
can be recycled and reused.) Disadvantages include the complications inherent in handling pure hydrogen,
its costs, and the wide-scale conversion that would be necessary for petroleum-fueled engines and
systems.

1.2. Brief Summary of the Invention
The invention through the strategic combination and balancing of electro-kinetic energy at twenty-four
individual reaction points converts kinetic energy into circular motion. The established perpetual circular
motion is then used to capture excited electrons at six electron capture stations. Where the relative
motion is used to establish a magnetic flux within an air gap and as a result, a voltage is induced within a
set of coils producing electron flow which we call “electricity”. The actual life span of the electro-kinetic
energy emitters used in the invention is estimated to last for 6 generations, over 400 years. Therefore,
today a single word definition cannot be located to describe the invention or its electrical energy
generation capabilities.

1.6. Detailed Description of the Inventions Operation
While the detailed descriptions and drawings herein contain many specificities, they should not be construed as limitations on the spirit and the scope of the invention, but rather as an exemplification of a few embodiments thereof. This invention converts electro-kinetic energy into kinetic energy in the form of circular motion. The energy conversion is illustrated in FIG 27 within an Electron Capture Station Item #3. The simulated Electro-kinetic Energy (C) emitted by the Housing Cylindrical Electro-kinetic Energy Emitters Item #11 is balanced against the like poles of the Triangular Electro-kinetic Energy Emitters Item #9 secured within the circumference of the 4 Point Centripetal Drive Disk Item #5. As a result of the strategic combination and balancing of these noncontact forces, the stronger force prevails and the disk's stationary position converts to a Clockwise Circular Motion (A). In a standard device, this conversion will be performed on six disk at 24 individual Reaction Points (D). The disk(s) are aligned, so the reaction points are equally spread over one complete rotation to maximize the resulting circular motion. Reference point (B) in FIG 28 identifies an air gap between the 4 Point Centripetal Drive Disk Item #5 and the Epoxy Coil Assembly Item #12 and as a result of the circular motion, the Electro-kinetic Energy Emitting Sectional Plate's Item #6 secured on the side of the disk establishes a magnet flux (a sea of spinning electrons) within the air gaps that encompass the coil assembly. A voltage is induced within the Individual Coils Item #13 as a result of this magnetic flux. In other words, freed electrons are captured by the individual coils as the disk rotates on the shaft.
1.7. Alternative Embodiments
The invention may be modified or built to generate a higher or lower output by adding or removing electron capture systems or stations to accommodate for different needs of the users. The invention could be used to power electric vehicles, therefore, providing an unbelievable range and eliminating the need to recharge from an outside electrical source. Alternately, miniaturized embodiments of this invention could be built and combined with any home appliance or electrical device creating countless cordless portable electrical devices that could be used anywhere at any time. Other types of suitable Electro-kinetic energy may be used in this invention, for example; the Housing Electro-kinetic Energy Emitters 11 could be replaced with computerized electromagnetic technology. The device should be built using only high-density Teflon or Plastic materials. No conducting materials should be used unless otherwise specified.
ECD Energy Corp 2020 22
Many construction means (e.g., stamping, carbon fiber and/or other composites, etc.) may be used for a large scale production of the energy device if so desired. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made in the embodiments illustrated, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, the invention is not to be limited to the particular forms herein shown and described.

2. Reward-Based Crowdfunding Campaign
Reward-based crowd-funding is a type of small business financing in which a company takes financial
contributions from individuals in return for a to-be-manufactured product. In the ECD Energy Corp “We
the People” rewards campaign, for a contribution of $100 USD the backers will receive one of our
revolutionary residential energy devices for their contribution when it is manufactured.
This campaign is designed to provide a ONE-TIME opportunity for the common person who would
otherwise not be able to afford/purchase one of our devices.
About the ECD residential device being offered as part of the campaign!
The reward-based residential device will be around the size of a standard home air-conditioning
condenser unit (the unit that is on the outside of your house). It will provide enough electricity to power a
standard 4,000 sqft home for our life-time and then some. This is because the electro-kinetic energy used
to operate the device is estimated to last for around 400 years. No additional fuel or consumable resource
will ever be needed to power the device.
If I participate/contribute to the campaign today, when can I expect delivery and installation of my device?
It is our plan to start manufacturing within 6 months after the success of the campaign. During that time
frame, we will contract all willing existing gasoline-powered electric generator manufactures to
immediately convert their facilities to build our device. At the same time, we will also contract all willing
major hardware, home and building supply stores to provide immediate delivery and installation services
for our company.
How do I contribute to the campaign and secure/obtain a energy device?
We have two available campaign options. You can go to the Internationally known crowd-funding website
of Indiegogo.com, register and contribute on our campaign page or you can simply join the ECD Members
Area and contribute there.For your contribution you will immediately receive a one-of-a-kind digital
title/asset to your device. At the publishing of this information, we are not aware of a similar digital
title/asset anywhere in the world. We have coded two separate digital titles, one for each campaign.
What is your crowdfunding goal?
The initial funding goal is only around $7 million USD (70,000 reward contributions/titles). Upon the
achievement of this goal ECD Energy Corp will move into the start-up stage and start manufacturing of the
contributors devices.
ECD Energy Corp 2020 52
Stage two of manufacturing is expected to be around $40 million USD, for which, we have coded and
allotted an additional 400,000 reward titles. Because of the importance of our energy device for the
future of mankind, we expect that our funding goals will be very easily achieved and that “ECD” will soon
be a common house-hold name.
Why have we chosen the Ethereum blockchain?
1. Security and predictability (as opposed to, for example, having to run an independent blockchain
network);
2. Use of robust and well- supported clients (Ethereum- based tokens can be managed with official
Ethereum clients):
3. High liquidity (interchangeable with other Ethereum- based tokens or Ether);
4. Easier listing on exchanges with infrastructure already in place;
5. Ethereum smart contracts enable a very transparent and secure way of Title sharing among the title
holders.
6. ERC20 defines a set of six functions that other smart contracts within the Ethereum ecosystem will
understand and recognize.

4. The ECD Digital Title
4.1 Purpose
In the ECD Energy Corp 'We the People' rewards campaign, the purchaser of a ECD Digital Title Token will
receive one of our revolutionary residential energy devices once manufactured. This campaign is designed
to provide a one-time opportunity for the common person who may not otherwise be able to purchase
one of our devices.
ECD Energy Corp 2020 53
The device is capable of generating sufficient energy for a standard 4,000 sqft household. The ECD Digital
Title is an electronic-title issued as an ERC-20 token secured by the Ethereum blockchain.
The ECD Digital Title is a commitment from ECD Energy Corp that represents ownership to a residential
energy device and can only be obtained by participating in our reward-based crowd-funding campaign.
4.2. Digital Title Tokens (DTT)
ERC-20 tokens can represent a diverse range of digital assets. Like other crypto assets, they can have a
value and be sent and received.
The difference between ERC-20 tokens and cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin…is that
ERC-20 tokens don’t have their own blockchain but reside on top of the Ethereum blockchain.
ERC-20 tokens have many uses. For example, they can act as project shares, asset-ownership certificates,
loyalty points, or even just pure cryptocurrencies. It’s also possible for ERC-20 tokens to simultaneously
fulfill several of these roles.
Our ECD Digital represent an actual Title of ownership to a physical Device comparable to a deed of a
house, and only that. The holder of the ECD digital Title is the true legitimate owner of one of our
revolutionary energy devices. We see our ECD as a different breed of ERC-20 token.
We designate our ECD Digital Title to be true Digital Title Tokens or DTT’s. Other than being simple
payment tokens or other than being Security tokens or Asset tokens (that represent assets and
underlying’s) or even other than utility tokens (that provide access to future goods or services of the
project) are DTT’s real digital representations of ownership.
Our DTT’s are only given out once, as part of our one-time crowdfunding campaign. ECD Energy Corp is so
strongly committing to hold its promise of this crowdfund that it is willing to issue a guarantee to whoever
purchases one of the ECD Digital title tokens.
4.3. The ECD Guarantee
ECD Energy Corp guarantees that whoever owns a ECD Title of Ownership or a ECD Digital Title is entitled
to receive one ECD residential device with the matching serial number. Once the campaign has completed
and the manufacturing process starts, you can exchange your ECD Title and arrange for the delivery and
installation of your residential device.

6. ECD FAQ
What does ECD stand for and what is it?
In the ECD Energy Corp "We the People" rewards campaign, the purchaser of a ECD Digital Title Token will receive one of our revolutionary residential energy devices once manufactured.
This campaign is designed to provide a one-time opportunity for the common person who may not otherwise be able to purchase one of our devices. The device is capable of generating sufficient energy for a standard 4,000 sq. ft household.
What do ECD’s represent?
ECD is an electronic-title issued as an ERC-20 token secured by the Ethereum blockchain. They are not
refundable, nor are they securities or for speculation. ECD’s give no rights in the company and do not
represent participation in the company. ECD’s are solely sold as a Title of Ownership of one of our to be
produced residential energy devices. Any value received by the company may be spent without
conditions.
What amount is being raised? What’s the cap of tokens? Will there be a follow-on offering?
We are targeting to raise at least $7 million USD and a maximum of $47 million USD. We have a limited
cap on our ECD of 400,000. This is a final supply set in the ETH contract. We do not plan to have a follow-
on offering of any of our ECD Titles of Ownership. It truly is a one-time campaign to fund our company.
What crypto-currencies are accepted in the crowd sale?
During our crowdfund campaign we want to give the opportunity to as many people as possible to
purchase a title of our energy devices. Besides having the more common payment options such as credit
cards and PayPal available, we also accept crypto-currencies. In our web shop you can pay for our ECD
Digital Titles with BTC, ETH, LTC, XMR, XRP and also Decred and Doge.
When will the Crowd sale happen?
The exact time of the launch of our crowdfunding campaign has not been decided on yet. We have set a
countdown timer on our website. Once we are ready and have decided on the final launch date, we will
update the clock and the displayed date will be the final launch date.
What is the price of ECD?
As part of the ONE-TIME “We the People” reward-based crowd-funding campaign you can purchase an
ECD Digital Title for ” $100 “ USD in our ECD Digital Title Shop.
How will ECD Energy Corp use the funds raised during the token launch?
The funds received in the crowd sale will be used by ECD Energy Corp to start up the company and build
out the production of the ECD Energy Devices for which the ECD token is a Title of ownership.
ECD Energy Corp 2020 56
How will ECD store the received crypto-currencies?
ECD Energy Corp sees the use of the ECD token and the acceptance of crypto-currencies merely as a
means to an end. The company will therefore convert as much and as soon as possible the crypto-
currencies to USD via our payment processors BitPay and Globee. Any crypto-currencies that would be
kept and stored even for a short period of time, will be done in multi-signature accounts.
Are ECD Digital Titles transferable?
Our ECD Digital titles are as ERC-20 tokens immediately transferable to ERC-20 compatible wallets.
However the ECD Digital titles are not resalable for now. We are planning to build our own ECD Energy
exchange where these tokens can be sold or exchanged for an ECD Energy device.
