Site energy is what your utility meter would read -- it is the
energy used on the site.<br>
<br>
Source energy takes into account energy loss for production and
transmission -- so it is the raw energy entering the power plant.
Your site to source conversion for electricity depends on your
electrical generation source. Recall that most thermal electric
generating stations are ~33% efficient ("Carnot efficient"?) in
terms of electricity out over fuel in. <br>
