- solar energy: diamondoid solar cells
- wind energy & various forms of hydro enegry: medium movers operated in reverse or interfacial drive generators can replace existing generators
- geothermal energy: diamondoid heat pump systems ( & Entropomechanical converters )
- nuclear energy: nuclear fusion
Note: The somewhat unususal term energy extraction was choosen as title for this page since energy production or power generation does'nt fit the first law of thermodynamics (energy cannot be produced or generated from nothing) energy can only be converted or extracted.
- basic Molecular power converters a special kind of diamondoid metamaterials
