The forms, types and energy transfer mediums or conversion platforms are the main focus for this discourse. Recall the main societal dysfunctions that has been created as a result of poor power and energy management systems in place. These issues therefore call for provocative proactive-thinking minds that would understand the right questions and deal prudently consequently. So, in essence, the focus has not been lost. Rather, the target is closer. “Educated” minds, prudent energy-users and power managers who from the wisdom of well-articulated and interpreted dreams of what energy truly is remain the purpose.
What energy is can be summed up as all enabling factors, effects, property or … this has been deduced so far. (Energy 1001-3). Abilities to do…power. Enabler to do…Energy. Kachiko?
Before any dramas begin, forms and types can be two confusing mostly-swapped words. Forms refer to shape, characteristics, behavioural assumptions possibly taken by an identity or entity. Types, however, indicate grouping based on shared characteristics. http://www.eia.gov/Kids/energy.cfm?page=about_forms_of_energy-basics. Now forms: you know. https://www.google.co.uk/url?q=http://education.jlab.org/jsat/powerpoint/0708_types_of_energy.ppt&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwim4sGBjvbLAhWGfg8KHYPcAaIQFggtMAo&usg=AFQjCNEXFx65svaA2WMMb9pLdD08hbJ72Q. Types: you also now know. Transfer medium: I know that you can know. Guess first medium? You and anything you so please. Conversion platforms: some already know. Exactly! Same goes for platforms. Mass, Energy and Light, the triangle of the universe. This is my theory for everything.
That’s it!
From Wonuola,
Your friend-in-ink.

We finally trashed out the physical cognisance of energy besides how asking the right questions matter. So our priority becomes the usefulness of energy as a “property”. Was discussing with one of my elite friends and something about ranking countries in terms of energy capacity and use came up. I could almost correlate three things almost without thinking. Wealth, Energy and Management. I wish the agenda had country-promotion, would have told you the top ranking countries in energy use and you could almost naturally tell me the wealthiest nations. But sorry, had to strike that off. (see links: http://www.photius.com/rankings/ and http://www.forbes.com/sites/ranisingh/2015/11/08/new-study-finds-a-better-way-to-measure-the-worlds-richest-countries/#53be2fa76b82). Anyway, property undermines ownership. You can own energy? Did I hear that question too? If proof to creation or destruction is the inherent law we have been told about energy, how can an entrepreneur who has been told of creativity all his life make anything of this? That’s why the next pointers couldn’t be left out. “Transfer” and “conversion”. These are intricate behaviours of energy. So fear not, platforms for transfer and conversion is possible. Need I say I am of the opinion that energy can be created and destroyed? Maybe I should keep that to myself until I come up with infallible proof. Least considered is the Einstein’s theory of mass, light and energy. Except someone can now refer to mass as a form of energy and then that would still prove my point. I obviously got distracted there. Back to the matter. Energy transfer requires a medium. That’s what you were thinking too, right? Conversion demands a known form and a desired output. That’s what informed energy transfer and conversion implies. All these require the knowledge of energy forms, types, transfer processes and conversion techniques. Bear in mind the other fact that no single definition exists. So we can continually explore different descriptions. Remember Wikipedia had to say that. So for now, we have dealt with the pointers from definition one.
The major highlights include understanding the energy forms, types, transfer mediums and conversion processes. Again, the reference to energy efficiency was intent on forward thinking and mind-storms not brain this time. So next time we’re having our heart-to-heart, that should be most of it. Energy forms, types, mediums, processes for conversion and transfer. In short, energy management. Wisdom involves optimising understanding, hence the need for knowledge provision and pointers to utility. So, WHAT is Energy?

You know what? I really don’t know if to keep writing this…
Had to search high and low on the net to see what is thought of as a right definition. Just the other time, dealing with inefficiencies in power and energy management was the focus. The idea of fully understanding the concept of energy in itself led to this. What is energy? How come it has to be managed? What does inefficiency in its use mean? What are the consequences of mismanagement or inefficient management? It’s still the same story we’re saying. What is energy?
So if energy is the same capacity to do work that you know, does it mean some have no capacity? Or what type of work are we even talking about? Is that why there is no “work”? Who knows? Maybe… Even if there was a job, what is the capacity to do it? is that energy? All these questions I’m sure are too much if there’s no answer, right? But think about it, google could simply give you an answer, so why are you reading this blog right now? I guess to seek the right question this time. So let’s get at it!
Aside the energy company ads that came up, the first definition that was encountered what quite amazing. Not like it was strange. It only shone in a different light. I guess UV light this time. We’ll talk about light some other time. Don’t get too excited just yet. Okay, so it reads and I quote, “In physics, energy is a property of objects which can be transferred to other objects or converted into different forms. The “ability of a system to perform work” is a common description, but it is difficult to give one single comprehensive definition of energy because of its many forms.”- Wikipedia.
Some pointers, “physics” was used as base study area. it was referred to as a “property”. I guess the undermines the need for management. You all know that fact already. “Transfer” and “conversion” are intricate behaviours of energy. It then describes the common description just as we’ve discussed. What is funny is the acknowledgement that no single definition exists…tada! Even wikipedia had to tell you? Anyways, now you see why this module is important.
It’s time to deal with pointer one. Area of physics. Why physics? Why not chemistry, mathematics, English or Philosophical area definition? Well, it’s simple. The physical realm feels the most impact of energy. Energy, not girls this time, runs the world. (apologies to the female folks)
Ouch! Just passed “my” word limit for the day. I guess you’ve caught on something this time. Next module, Energy 1003 should deal with the pointers and hence throw more light on what energy is really. You can check this out for now. Notice how your mind questions the true definition of energy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efficient_energy_use.
