A CONTROVERSIAL plan backed by Indonesia's president to turn water into cheap and limitless energy has run aground, with tests showing the wonder fuel is just plain diesel, a report said today.

Government scientists have revealed that tests on the so-called "Blue Energy," purportedly made from water, showed it was diesel from state oil company Pertamina, The Jakarta Post reported.

"Blue Energy is nothing extraordinary as it is just a form of hydrocarbon or fossil fuel," Research and Technology Minister Kusmayanto Kadiman was quoted as saying.

The energy "breakthrough" grabbed headlines in Indonesia after its inventor, Joko Suprapto, managed to convince President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono he could separate hydrogen from water, turning it into diesel.

The plan was exhibited at the UN climate change conference in Bali in December with the President's blessing.

Mr Suprapto went missing last month but was found in a hospital in West Java suffering from heart problems after Mr Yudhoyono, fearing he had been abducted by jealous oil barons, ordered a police search, Te news magazine reported.

An Indonesian has developed a motorcycle that runs on a mixture of water and gasoline (petrol). I saw it running on the TV. The man said that the only drawback is that the fuel tank has to be special, since the water mixed into the fuel tends to rust ferrous tanks.

What is the mixture? Incredibly, it is 20% fuel and 80% water. He is on his third design iteration (prototype). His name is V. J. Bosco, but I can't find any articles on the Internet about him, yet. He is from North Sulawesi province. Very interesting.
