Open l-emele opened 1 year ago

Description of the issue

We currently have 49 competency questions. Most of them deal with portion of matter, fuel and artificial objects. There are only two questions regarding energy. Other important parts of the OEO are not yet covered at all by the competency questions.

Ideas of solution

Some proposals for new competency questions, based on what we already can express with the OEO.

  1. Does every energy transformation need a material entity? => Yes
  2. Is every fuel an energy carrier? => Yes
  3. Is every energy carrier a fuel? => No
  4. Can a diesel car use biodiesel? => Yes
  5. Is an e-bike an battery electric vehicle? => Yes
  6. Can a gas turbine only use natural gas? => No
  7. Is a data license a copyright license? => No
  8. Is electrical energy a commodity? => Yes
  9. Is thermal energy a commodity? => No
  10. Is hydrogen produced in a water electrolysis process using wind energy an renewable energy carrier? => Yes

But more interesting are probably questions which we cannot yet answer using the OEO.

  1. What is the difference between a renewable biofuel and a non-renewable biofuel? => Only renewable biofuel has a material sustainability disposition. (No idea, how to implement this question).
