Having watched a documentary recently about this style of energy generation, its very plausable to me.
(for those interested it is called 'runs of water' by Equinox, though it is a few years old).
The systems used to generate the energy are not based around traditional scientific theories, but rather appear to be going beyond what we already consider possible. For instance one guy was generated several thousand percent more energy (from Hydrogen) through electrolysis by running a rapidly (i.e. tens of thousands of cycles a second) alternating current through water at a low voltage. The science behind it was completly mystifying but he got a patent nonetheless. Tesla said that some of his biggest tesla coils had an output greater than the input he was giving them.
I believe the term zero point energy was being discussed, but i can't remember in what context.
To all those that say 'oh this is absoloutly impossible, your a crackpot, get off my lawn!' if we went back one hundred years and said you could create power from splitting the atom you'd be laughed at, if you went back another hundred you'd be laughed at for saying you could run a car on an internal combustion engine.
