Thank you Mr. Reeves for your question. According to my analysis, the electron does experience the Casimir effect. In fact, the Casimir effect is nearly identical to the calculated strong force for the electron and the difference falls within the range experimentally produced by Steve Lamoreaux.
Also, CERN conclusively proved in 2010 that the Casimir effect generates real photons from the Aether (vacuum) and not virtual photons. When a real photon is generated by the presence of two properly aligned electrons, that photon can be absorbed by certain atoms and converted to an electron and the electron can be put to work. This in essence is "free energy."
However, the energy is not free. There is a cost to everything. The creation of new electrons from the Aether means new matter, and hence, new mass and charge are generated.
If all energy on Earth was generated by Casimir devices, we would end up with excessive electrons, or electrostatic pollution.
