Potential EnergyEnergy stored within a physical system as a result of the position or configuration of the different parts of that system
Kinetic EnergyThe energy of a body or a system with respect to the motion of the body or of the particles in the system
Joulethe SI unit of work or energy, equal to the work done by a force of one newton when its point of application moves through a distance of one meter in the direction of the force: equivalent to 10 ergs and one watt-second.
WattageThe amount of power required to operate an electrical appliance or device
Renewable Energy
any naturally occurring, theoretically inexhaustible source of energy, as biomass, solar, wind, tidal, wave, and hydroelectric power, that is not derived from fossil or nuclear fuel.
Nonrenewable Energy
Energy that comes from the ground and is not replaced in a relatively short amount of time
Weather-strippinga narrow strip of material to cover the joint of a door or window to exclude the cold
Insulationthe use of material to resist the flow of electric current and magnetism
Rfactora numeric measure of a material's ability to insulate against heat or cold. Also used for windows.
Greenhouse Emissoins
are gases in an atmosphere that absorb and emit infrared range
Thermostata device for regulating the temperature of a system so that the system's temperature is maintained near a desired set point temperature.
Ambient Tempature
non-specific phrase used to describe the outside temperature.
Efficiencydesired energy output per energy input
Carbon footprintthe total set of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions caused by an organization, event or product".
