Also with free energy, how we've had the tech for a long time, but it's too disruptive to the petrodollar to introduce it. I'm not a physicist, but it makes sense to me that energy exists everywhere. In "empty" space, energy is all around you in particle form. Every once in a while somebody comes up with an invention utilizing zero point energy, but it's shelved, bought out, or seized in a matter of national security. Security to the petrodollar. Greer claims the patent offices are controlled.
I don't know about the patent thingy, but you are correct that energy is everywhere. Atoms are made up of subatomic "particles", which themselves are made up of... discrete bundles of energy. Those bundles of energy fly in orbits around other bundles of energy, held in place by "forces", such as gravity, the strong force, the weak force, etc. The space between those bundles of energy is vast, compared to their actual sizes. They are like miniature solar systems. Although the space between them is "empty", it isn't - it's filled with those mysterious "forces". Still, everything you can see, feel, touch, or taste is mostly nothing, mostly "empty" space.
Whether anyone has actually devised a method of harnessing those energies and forces, I cannot say.

Greer seems to know at least a smattering of some pretty secret government projects, but not a lot about them, going by his actions and how he chooses to use that "knowledge". He seems to know a little, but not enough to get himself in trouble, at least not regarding the ones I know anything about. Instead, he seems to be trying to use that "knowledge" to create snake-oil for sale. Take those events you mention as examples - do you now how much he charges attendees to those "events"? A pretty penny. Yet even at that, he's using less than half - quite a bit less - of what has been discovered in those programs. However, to my knowledge, he is the only one ever to try to use such things as dog-whistles to call aliens in and bring them to heel. That seems pretty highly suspect to me.
Also suspect is the rarefied circles he professes to circulate in. If he had "contacts" with half the horsepower he claims, I think he's be singing a different tune, or at least not trying to make a buck off of their work. Alternatively, if he DOES traipse about in those circles, then what he is spewing may well be misinformation on their behalf... and, if you're gonna do that, why not at least make a buck off of it?
All in all, I don't know what to think about him. He may be sincere, but being misguided, he may be just a snake-oil salesman or... he may be actively and intentionally working on their behalf to misdirect and misguide the rest of the population.
I just don't know.
