Original CNN report by Science Editor Kevin Sanders.on 5- megawatt Nitinol Engine designed by .Mcdonnell Douglas


"Nitinol power plants for the conversion of low-grade thermal energy may have significant economic advantage over conventionally-fueled power plants.


A plant of five Nitinol modules could produce 5 megawatts of power." McDonnell-Douglas research report: http://arc.aiaa.org/doi/abs/10.2514/3.48057

Video from 1970?, article from 1982?, and where is the hot water coming from?

2017 and I don`t see any 5 Megawatt power plant.

Nothing wrong with idea of getting power from waste heat though.
