Interesting that almost no one attributes the energy to the ZPF. Roarty does this. And every so often, it is worth dredging up the RPF hypothesis - Reversible Proton Fusion which can be made compatible with ZPE as the energy source. This route to gain would consume no hydrogen, produce no radioactivity, and could be compatible with a ZPE portal to mass-energy transfer. However, doing so would imply that much of our Sun's output is related to ZPE as well, since the RPF is the most common reaction on the Sun by far. The gain in RPF has been attributed to QCD mass-to-energy conversion via magnon coupling (color change) of excess proton mass - in that fraction of protons which is heavier than average. However, this mass depletion in protons could be regained by ZPE exposure in a similar way Puthoff suggests. Jones
