	Energy development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Energy sources are substances or processes with concentrations of energy at a high enough potential to be feasibly encouraged to convert to lower energy forms under human control for human benefit.
		Fossil fuels, in terms of energy, involve the burning of coal or hydrocarbon fuels, which are the remains of the decomposition of plants and animals.
		A method of energy storage may be chosen based on stability, ease of transport, ease of energy release, or ease of converting free energy from the natural form to the stable form.

	Alternative Energy Overview - ABS Alaskan Alternative Energy
		In some areas alternative energy generated by a homeowner can be "sold back" to the local utility company, resulting in lower monthly electric bills at the least, and perhaps even generating income for the homeowner with a large renewable energy system.
		The cost of building a wind or solar "energy farm" can be prohibitive when compared to the cost of upgrading or maintaining their current* coal plants or large hydroelectric dams.
		Over the approximate 20-year lifespan of a well-designed alternative energy system, the savings on generator fuel will more than make up for the installation costs, and the added peace and quiet of the silent renewable energy system is a priceless benefit.
