Basic relations, such as force or scalar energy laws for purely mechanical phenomena or small individual volumes of matter and fields in physical processes of general form in the presence of internal and external interactions accompanied by transformation among themselves of various forms of energy, ...
, and it is possible to convert some energy forms into others, with the condition that the energy is conserved. History A coherent theory on energy and its transformations was first advanced in the nineteenth century, chiefly as a consequence of the Industrial Revolution. The propounding of...
To be successful, this transformation will rely heavily on the energy industry helping drive solutions addressingsustainability in all of its forms— balancing the need for future-forward technology and a future-ready workforce — while keeping humans at the center of their actions and strategies. ...
It is suggested that change to physical forms and systems be denoted as transformations, and that changes to large socio-technical systems be denoted as transitions when the focus is on a higher order of change that highlights the ways that society motivates, facilitates, and benefits from change...
Each query’s results were analyzed in VOSviewer and presented in graphical forms as bibliometric maps. The choice of the keywords type (all, author, or indexed keywords) and the number of keywords co-occurrences determines the result obtained in its graphical presentation and bibliometric map ...
This has begun to change in recent years through emergence of new scientific evidence and associated research on the large contribution of lifestyle transformations towards meeting ambitious climate goals, and how these lifestyle changes can be represented in large-scale quantitative models. Previous ...
We should consider Net Zero as ‘net zero impact’ on our whole ecosystem (not just emissions, but all forms of pollution, waste and related harms on climate, nature and the biosphere as a whole) In ourcurrent political environment, Net Zero is reached when any greenhouse gas (GHG) emissio...
Developing ETM projects to mitigate the effects of historical industrialization will paradoxically involve encroaching on landscapes with high levels of ecological and cultural integrity and traditional forms of land tenure and ownership20,21,22. Approving and permitting the development and expansion of thes...
Or have regulatory traditions instead shifted in favour of new modes of governance and participation, reflecting an overarching tendency towards more state-society cooperation and higher citizen involvement? Different forms of societal involvement can shape the energy sector in various ways. Accordingly, ...
The history of the life–Earth system can be divided into five ‘energetic’ epochs, each featuring the evolution of life forms that can exploit a new source of energy. These sources are: geochemical energy, sunlight, oxygen, flesh and fire. The first two were present at the start, but ...
