2. Non-commercial energy : Non-commercial (also spelled noncommercial) refers to an activity
or entity that does not in some sense involve commerce, at least relative
to similar activities that do have a commercial objective or emphasis.
For example, advertising-free community radio stations are typically
nonprofit organizations staffed by individuals volunteering their
efforts to air a wide variety of radio programming, and do not run
explicit radio advertisements, included in the United States specific
grouping of "non-commercial educational" (NCE) public radio
stations. Some Creative Commons licenses include a "Non-
Commercial" option, controversial in definition and application.
