sources of energy

There's a great blog on the subject called An Engineer's Look at the Future of Energy.

The best list and and study for all energy types is found on the United States Department of Energy. As a supplement to the DoE, one can find a very complete discussion of climate change on the United States Environmental Protection Agency web site. It is imperative that we all understand the science of energy and the environment if we are to make any type of argument for or against the need for global warming or for or against the need for alternate energy sources. The subject is laced with a lot of emotion and misinformation as some large energy corporations and politicians fight maintain their large profit margins and dominance on the world scheme of things.

we know all the leading books, publications, and the people behind all these

happenings can better give us detailed description of all the things we need.

the question is simple, do we have any fund allocation to find any cheap force

or affordable force to replace wind as a prime force to make the wind mill

really work.(i know the term has no locus standie without wind as prime source

in wind mill) my sincere approch is to know anybody has serious thoughts about

incorporating any cheap form of force to replace wind as a prime source of force in the wind mill.

Hi, Hello sir,

Apart from yet unknown energy resources, which is to be explored as the

time warrents now, the best site to log on for the known energy

sources is UNITED STATES ENERGY DEPARTMENT, which I hope will

do the needful.

Please keep in touch, my e mail is Paulsontk@yahoo.com

Thanks

There are only three known useful sources of energy available on earth. These are energies originating from the radiation emanating from the sun, gravitational effects of the motion of the moon and sun, and those resulting from the thermal source and fluid motion within the core of the earth. Everything else is a derivative of one or both of these sources. Fossil fuels combine solar sources and deep earth processes to produce highly concentrated forms of energy. Wind and direct solar are essentially manifestations of the basic energy source derived from the radiation originating at the sun- the same source used when extracting "biofuels". Wave energy is also derived from solar energy. Tidal energy results from the gravitational effects of the moon moving around the earth, and to a lesser extent, the motion of the earth about the sun. Nuclear energy is a surface manifestation of the processes believed responsible for the heat at the center of the earth. We haven't yet harnessed the process which creates the energy in the sun.

what about chemical energy.. ie lead acid batteries? which category?

I think it is fair to say that all usable energy is 'atomic' energy. (as being atom based)

All electromagnetic energy, from heat to light to radiation, etc

All inertial energy, although we still have to discover its true source.. higgs boson etc.

All chemical energy is electronic, and therefore atom based.

All magnetic energy is connected to the atom.. not without.

All electric energy. Electrons only flow from one atom to another.

All usable energy is a difference of potential. it is all made possible by the atom.

Conversationally, all energy storage is also atom based, based on the notion of potential.

in short.. no atoms, no energy. no difference of potential..

don't forget that sensors to detect energy are made of atoms, and can not be eliminated from the scenario.

Biomass (biofuel is not a source, its a term created from Bio-meaning earth and fuel. Also known as renewable fuel.) geothermal, natural gas, solar, hydropower, coal, petroleum, uranium ,propane, and wind. atwelve year old knows that!!!!

Fusion reactors is a breakthrough, solar cells I use them . . .

ENERGY HAS NO PARTICULAR FORMS,BUT,IT CAN BE CLASSIFIED, OR MEASURED

OR SENSED IN TERMS OF OF ITS ACTIVITY. ANYTHING THAT EXISTS CAN BE A

SOURCE OF ENERGY ONCE COUPLED WITH ANOTHER ELEMENT.

IT WILL BE INCOMPLETE, IF SOMEONE SUBMIT A COMPLTE LIST OF ALL THE

FORMS OF ENERGY AT ANY GIVEN TIME BASED ON THE BASIC FACTS ABOVE.

Sir or madam, if you stop shouting at us, we might be more receptive. I suggest you learn to use Google for you searches, it is rather comprehensive. This question suggest to me that you are somewhat young and trying to use CR4to do your homework assignment.
