Triticale (Ã Triticosecale), /trÉªtÉªËkeÉªliË/ is a hybrid of wheat (Triticum) and rye (Secale) first bred in laboratories during the late 19th century in Scotland and Sweden.s a feed grain, triticale is already well established and of high economic importance. It has received attention as a potential energy crop, and research is currently being conducted on the use of the crop's biomass in bioethanol production.
A source of energy that is dependent on a primary source of energy for its power. Since the production of electricity, for example, is dependent on the use of fossil fuels, nuclear power, or renewable sources, it is referred to as a secondary energy source.
When electricity is generated from flowing water, this is called hydroelectric energy, and the prefix 'hydro' refers to water. Hydroelectric energy is considered a renewable energy resource because it's an energy resource that regenerates in a short time period. You can think of this like the hair on your head. If you get a bad haircut that you don't like, you don't have to worry about it too much because it will grow back in a reasonable amount of time.
