The nature of dark energy is currently not fully understood. It might be related to zero-point energy... but if it is, the question arises why the density of dark is about 120 orders of magnitude less than the theories of zero-point energy predict. Predicting that the observable Universe has exactly one atom would be more accurate than that.

No.

Dark energy is a repulsive force ... sort of an anti-gravity.

What are the major components of a zero point energy generator?

zero point energy generators exist in the modern world only in theory. Any you find that have been made are scams. Scientifically, the zero point energy generator is an ideal that cannot yet be reached.

Yes! Absolute zero has minimal kinetic energy.

What exactly the use of these zero point energy to nowadays people?

Zero point energy, or the energy of the vaccum, remains speculative. No one is currently using it for anything, and no one knows how to access it, if such a thing indeed will ever be possible.


What is the Science and Technology of Zero?

There are no references online to this exact expression, but perhaps it refers to Zero Point Energy which is the energy still present even when matter has been cooled to absolute zero. This energy is locked up within the atom in the form of particle spin and electron orbit momentum as well as more exotic quantum effects. There is speculation that zero point energy and a corresponding zero point field is part of the most fundamental properties of matter and of the universe as a whole.


What is the temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter?

Absolute zero. On the Kelvin scale of heat measurement, 0K is the point at which no more energy can be removed or −273.15°C / −459.67°F. There is not enough energy there at 0K to transfer any movement from the substance to another substance.


Why is it impossible to have temperature value below 0 k?

Because absolute zero (or 0k) is the point at which EVERYTHING freezes. More specifically, absolute zero is defined to be the point where there is no energy. You can't have less than no energy.


Will anyone please define the term space-energy?

Space-energy, also known as zero-point energy is the lowest possible energy that a quantum mechanical physical system may have and is the energy of the ground state, which is non-zero.
