Raymond Moonen, St. Cloud Times, 1997 Raymond Moonen had a vision--a vision to create a new energy for a changing world. He was born in 1908 on a farm south of Albany, Minnesota and quickly became used to hard work and creativity. Moonen's challenging home life prompted him to leave when he was 15 years old. Raymond's intention was to reach the Dakotas but only went as far as Paynesville. There, he worked on a farm doing chores while spending his free time dabbling in various business ventures. Moonen's hard work allowed him to save money for college and later attended St. John's University. His good fortune continued as Bechtel Corporation in California hired him as an engineer during World War II. By this time, Moonen began making connections--and formulating ideas--about how he could change the world. He thought about Moonenized Energy for 50 years. The core of Moonen's idea was to develop an automobile engine without the limitations of electric power. His design had three pistons housed in a cylinder casing that could withstand 300 pounds of pressure. By turning a valve, these pistons moved back and forth as hydraulic fluid provided lubrication. Moonen claimed his motor created 2 tons of energy and generated enough electricity to power a car without the emissions of an internal combustion engine. By 1997, 23 investors showed interest in Moonenized Energy. Moonen also received a US Patent for his invention. But advancing age and a lack of commitment from a major auto manufacturer put his dream on hold. Raymond Moonen passed away in 2002. Contributor: Irma Lommen - Salden
