The world needs a new source of energy, an unspillable source.

How come the Searl effect isn’t being researched as an alternative source of energy?

There’s people that are building hydrogen, sun and even corn powered vehicles as a source of energy. So why hasn’t the government invested money into thuis little known are of science? Do you guys think the effect is a hoax or maybe it never worked?any answers would be greatly appreciated.
I just found out about this effect through this website http://www.americanantigravity.com/searleffect.html
