Abstract. Generators and batteries do not furnish any of their internal energy to their external
circuit, but only dissipate it internally to perform work on their own internal charges to form a source
dipole. Once formed, the dipole's broken symmetry extracts observable energy from the virtual
particle exchange between dipole charges and active vacuum. The extracted observable energy is
reradiated as the energy flow through all space surrounding the external circuit. The tiny Poynting
fraction intercepted by the surface charges enters the circuit to power it, while the huge
nonintercepted Heaviside fraction misses the circuit and is wasted. So electrical loads are powered
by energy extracted from the vacuum, not by chemical energy in the battery or shaft energy input to
the generator. Any EM system may be asymmetrically regauged freely, changing the energy of the
system by changing its potential. By placing the source dipole in a closed current loop with external
loads and losses, half the free excitation energy then discharged by the circuit destroys the source
dipole while half powers loads and losses. This applies Lorentz symmetrical regauging so that
additional internal generator/battery energy must be made available to dissipate on the internal
charges to reform the dipole. Such self-crippling EM power systems exhibit COP < a priori.
Requirements for COP > EM systems are given, as are recognized examples of such processes.
We also propose the ubiquitous ounted Heaviside energy as the "dark matter" gravitational
energy long sought by astrophysicists.
