Triticale (Ã Triticosecale), /trÉªtÉªËkeÉªliË/ is a hybrid of wheat (Triticum) and rye (Secale) first bred in laboratories during the late 19th century in Scotland and Sweden.s a feed grain, triticale is already well established and of high economic importance. It has received attention as a potential energy crop, and research is currently being conducted on the use of the crop's biomass in bioethanol production.
A source of energy that is dependent on a primary source of energy for its power. Since the production of electricity, for example, is dependent on the use of fossil fuels, nuclear power, or renewable sources, it is referred to as a secondary energy source.
Energy in general is defined as the capacity for doing work. Power is the rate of doing work or the rate of using energy: P=Work/t=Energy/t, where t is time. Although casually the terms energy and power are often used interchangeably, technically they have different meanings. The SI unit of energy and work (which are numerically the same) is the joule (J) . A joule is the work done by a force of one newton for a distance of one meter. This unit is usually used in physics. Energy comes in many forms, such as heat, motion, gravitational, radiated solar power, and electrical.
