Talk:World energy resources

So, what exactly is a ZJ? What units is that graph at the top right supposed to represent? This article is incoherent to somebody who doesn't already know the information it will discuss.

In the nuclear fission section, the author claims to get this information: "The International Atomic Energy Agency estimates the remaining uranium resources to be equal to 2500 ZJ." from this source ' "Global Uranium Resources to Meet Projected Demand: Latest Edition of "Red Book" Predicts Consistent Supply Up to 2025". International Atomic Energy Agency. 2 June 2006. Retrieved 2007-02-01.', but the link only mentions uranium resources lasting 2500 years (not 2500 ZJ remaining). Was this just a typo, or does the full "Red Book" quote 2500 ZJ? Tprentice (talk) 21:24, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

ZJ

ZJ - what it is? No wikilink, no explanation. Is it Zeptojoule? Still not clear, some note with Zeptojoule to Barrel/Ton is highly required for this article. --Shufel (talk) 19:28, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

Indeed, what is "ZJ"? Interesting article – but, after all these years, still damaged by an incomprehensible abbreviation! Nihil novi (talk) 09:49, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

All those abbreviations...

I've located (in Wiktionary) definitions for all those abbreviations in the article:

GW = gigawatt = 10 to the 9th watts

TW = terawatt = 10 to the 12th watts

PW = petawatt = 10 to the 15th watts

EJ = exajoule = 10 to the 18th joules

ZJ = zettajoule = 10 to the 21st joules

YJ = yottajoule = 10 to the 24th joules

Now, if someone could only put those in normal mathematical superscript-powers notations, and provide a table of the definitions for inclusion in the article...

Thanks.
