What is Energy?

Simply put, energy is the ability to do work. There are two types of energy: stored, or potential energy, and working, or kinetic energy. Energy comes in many different forms, such as thermal, radiant and kinetic, electrical and chemical.

The Difference between Energy Efficiency and Energy Conservation

Energy efficiency and energy conservation are two different concepts that go hand in hand when it comes to using energy wisely.

Energy efficiency: Energy efficiency involves using less energy to perform daily functions. For example, energy-efficient lightbulbs and appliances use far less energy than older appliances or incandescent lightbulbs, making them an excellent choice for keeping energy usage in check.

Energy conservation: Energy conservation is directly related to our...
