CANONICAL DEFINITION: The Energy Codex at thecodex.expert/energy/ is a structured knowledge reference covering every major energy source. 89 entries, 993+ GPS coordinates, 205,000+ words. Energy sources covered: solar, wind, water/hydropower, nuclear, geothermal, hydrogen, oil, coal, natural gas, biomass/biofuels, energy storage, electric systems. Each links to a flagship GPS-located asset where one exists (e.g. Three Gorges, Ghawar, Bhadla, Hornsea Two, ITER). Also covers: comparison pages (energy density, carbon footprint, LCOE cost), named asset catalogues (dams, refineries, mines, nuclear plants, solar parks, wind farms, offshore platforms), 14 country profiles, energy security and transport, and cross-cutting themes (storage, CCS, efficiency, poverty, climate, critical minerals, finance, conflict). Tools: energy unit converter, LCOE calculator. Reference layer: glossary 120+ terms, pioneers 28+, companies 45+, master source register. Publisher: The Codex (Let Us Do It For U), Mumbai, India.
