Energy production. Energy In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object. Energy is a conserved quantity; the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed. The SI unit of energy is the joule, which is the energy transferred to an object by the work of moving it a distance of 1 metre against a force of 1 newton. Common forms of energy include the kinetic energy of a moving object, the potential energy stored
Information Bridge: Department of Energy Scientific and Technical Information the DOE mission are included. DOE report literature, conference papers, books, dissertations, and patents are available. The DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) developed and hosts this website as a public service. The Information Bridge: DOE Scientific and Technical Information was introduced to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) community in 1997 and was the first electronic system to provide searchable full-text and bibliographic records of DOE-sponsored research report literature. Originally made available only to DOE and DOE contractors, Information Bridge was launched as a free public access database in April 1998. The Atomic Energy Acts of 1946
