Energy as a Crosscutting ConceptBig Ideas About Energy1. All energy is fundamentally the same, and it can be

manifested in different phenomena that are often referred to as different “forms” or “types.”

2. Energy can be transformed/converted from one form/type to another.

3. Energy can be transferred between systems and objects.

4. Energy is conserved. It is never created or destroyed, only transformed/converted or transferred.

5. Energy is dissipated in all macroscopic (involving more than just a few particles) processes.

Crosscutting Concept: EnergyNext Generation Science Standards—Energy and Matter: Flows, Cycles, and Conservation

• Energy can be transferred in various ways and between objects.

• Energy may take different forms.• The transfer of energy can be tracked as energy flows

through a system.• Energy cannot be created or destroyed—it only moves

between one place and another or it changes form.
