Potential EnergyThe energy an object has because
of its composition or position.
Kinetic EnergyEnergy an object has because of
its mass and velocity. Objects that don't move have no kinetic energy.
Joule
The si unit of energy
Wattage An amount of power, especially electric power, expressed in watts or kilowatts
The electric power required by an appliance or device
A measure of electric power based on the amount of amps and volts
Renewable Energy
Energy that come from natural resources such as the sun with solar power or water with hydropower
Non-Renewable Energy
Energy that is not renewable such as fossil fuels and some gases.
Weather-Stripping
Strips of foam insulation or another depending on the brand to keep temperatures regulated in homes
InsulationFibers, foam, and/or paper that is
used to fill cracks and gaps in homes so air will not get through and raise energy cost’s
R-ValueThe thermal energy resistance a
specific type of insulation has that is used in the building and construction industry.
Greenhouse Emissions
Gases that are released due to the effects of the greenhouse effect
ThermostatA device that controls the system
functions of a heating or cooling unit
Ambient TemperatureThe temperature in a room, or the
temperature which surrounds an object under discussion
EfficiencyTo use less energy to provide the
same level of energy service
Carbon FootprintA carbon footprint is the measure
of the amount of greenhouse gases, measured in units of carbon dioxide, produced by human activities
Audit
An evaluation of a person, organization, system, process, enterprise, project or product.
