Energy sources can be divided into three broad categories Chemical (oxidizing some reduced substance) or photophysical energy (absorbing sunlight to generate either heat or electricity) Nuclear reactions (splitting heavy nuclei or by fusing light nuclei) Thermomechanical (wind, water, or geological sources of steamor hot water) International EcoEnergy Clusters Meeting| 12.05.2010 |
Steps in electric energy consume: • Generation • Transmission • Convertion • 4) Storage (mechanical, chemical, and thermal) • 5) Consumption International EcoEnergy Clusters Meeting| 12.05.2010 |
The storage techniques can be divided into four categories 1) Low-power application in isolated areas, essentially to feed transducers and emergency terminals, 2) Medium-power application in isolated areas (individual electrical systems, town supply), 3) Network connection application with peak leveling, 4) Power-quality control applications.

‘I believe that water will one day be used as a fuel because the hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used separately or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light. I therefore believe that, when coal deposits are oxidised, we will heat ourselves by means of water. Water is the coal of the future’ ‘L’Ile Mysterieuse’, Jules Verne 1875, International EcoEnergy Clusters Meeting| 12.05.2010 |
