An energy engineer is an engineer who is usually involved with the production of energy
which is obtained from renewable or sustainable sources, such as hydro, solar, and wind
power.
Émilie du Châtelet, whose most recognized achievement is her translation of Isaac Newton's
book Principia, proposed and tested the law of conservation of energy which states that the
total energy of an isolated system remains constant.
Energy can be found in nature in the form of fuels which can be harnessed and transformed
into forms that are readily usable by humans.
In the International System of Units (SI), the unit of power is the watt (W), which is equal to
one joule per second.
Light, which is one of the several sources of energy, can have many different forms that are
invisible to the unaided human eye.
Energy transformation, which is also known as energy conversion, is the process of changing
energy from one form to another.
For example, the gravitational potential energy of a hot air balloon will change depending on
how far it is from the Earth’s centre.
