Like solar radiation, the ocean is another widely available and distributed energy source. The energy in the ocean is in part kinetic energy in the form of tides, currents, and waves, and part thermal energy from the sun stored as heat. The quantity of energy stored in the ocean is enormous but can be quite diffuse; in some cases, it is about the same as from solar radiation and, as a result, it is difficult to harness. Marine energy systems can be classified into four main groups: (more…)

It is often useful to know how much energy is being changed from one form to another. For example, natural gas companies need to have a way to measure the fuel demands of their customers so they can provide enough natural gas advantages when it is most needed. (more…)
