Kinetic energy
The motion of an object with mass is measured by the kinetic energy equation.
Formula: K.E. = 1/2 m v2

Mass = Kilograms (kg) and Velocity = Meters per Second (m/s)
Kinetic energy is a consequence of an object's motion, which may have been initiated by a force, however this differs to describing motion energy.
What is meant by Motion Energy?
For example: Let's use a glass of water. Once kinetic energy has stopped being applied to the glass, the glass stops moving. However due to inertia the water retains motion energy, this results in a combination of kinetic and potential exchange of energy until the water stops moving.
Motion Energy is single term which explains kinetic and potential energy exchange. It is an obvious term to adopt for this classical purpose as it describes from a top level that motion is still operating. This would be especially true, if you could not see through the glass and had no idea that the fluid within it was still moving.
Kinetic Electricity
Harvesting kinetic energy to produce electricity has almost exclusively been provided by steam driving an alternating current from a motor. It is this motor method that has been replaced in technology developed by Active Kinetic 1 machines.
