Company Profile:
Energy available as a result of motion that varies directly in proportion to an object's mass and the square of its velocity.
Industry:Energy
Energy available due to position.
Industry:Energy
Energy available from the movement of the wind across a landscape caused by the heating of the atmosphere, earth, and oceans by the sun.
Industry:Energy
Energy conversion technologies that harness the energy in tides, waves, and thermal gradients in the oceans.
Industry:Energy
Energy derived from resources that are regenerative or for all practical purposes can not be depleted. Types of renewable energy resources include moving water (hydro, tidal and wave power), thermal gradients in ocean water, biomass, geothermal energy, solar energy, and wind energy. Municipal solid waste (MSW) is also considered to be a renewable energy resource.
Industry:Energy
Energy generated from an electromagnetic field produced by an electric current flowing through a superconducting wire kept at a specific low temperature.
Industry:Energy
Energy loads that can be shut off or disconnected at the supplier's discretion or as determined by a contractual agreement between the supplier and the customer.
Industry:Energy
Energy output from a system that equals energy input.
Industry:Energy
Energy produced by the conversion of biomass directly to heat or to a liquid or gas that can be converted to energy.
Industry:Energy
Energy produced by the internal heat of the earth; geothermal heat sources include: hydrothermal convective systems; pressurized water reservoirs; hot dry rocks; manual gradients; and magma. Geothermal energy can be used directly for heating or to produce electric power.
