What is different between total energy and fundamental energy?

Is this the difference between enthalpy and Gibbs Free Energy as might be read in a reaction kinetics textbook?

My experience with this, since no context was given, is that fundamental energy is the energy contained within the fundamental frequency range or value. The "total energy" would be that of the fundamental energy plus all the energies contained within the harmonics. I believe the even series of harmonics cancel, but the odd series (triplens, I believe they're called) sum.

All the harmonic energies* sum. You are possibly thinking of the effect on peak-to-peak amplitude?

*Wouldn't this correctly be power in this context?
