The level of prosperity of a community is related to its capability to produce
goods and services. But producing goods and services is strongly related to the
use of energy in an intelligent way.
Motion and temperature (heat) control are paramount in energy usage.
Energy comes into use in a few forms such as thermal, mechanical and
electrical.
