This would actually not be true at sufficiently high latitudes in the winter hemisphere, except that some circulation in the upper atmosphere is driven by kinetic energy generated within the troposphere (small amount of energy involved) which, so far as I know, doesn't result in much of a global time average non-radiative energy flux above the tropopause, but it does have important regional effects, and the result is that the top of the stratosphere is warmer than the tropopause at all latitudes in all seasons so far as I know.

Often working with industrial materials — painted wood, paving slabs, plastic cord, metal fencing and corrugated iron — her installations have a seemingly improvised and temporary attitude, but are rigorously considered, combining an almost classical formalism with a kinetic energy generated by poised, provisional and precarious compositions and her attuned use of materials.

Regenerative braking captures the kinetic energy generated during braking and channels it back to the battery pack, though it's not enough to power the car on its own.

It captures the kinetic energy generated while braking, stores it in a compact battery pack, and feeds it to a small motor attached to the side of the internal combustion engine.

MGU - K (where the «K» stands for kinetic) works like an uprated version of the previous KERS, converting kinetic energy generated under braking into electricity (rather than it escaping as heat).

Most of these vehicles are equipped with a regenerative braking system that converts kinetic energy generating during braking to electric power, helping to recharge the battery.

Our theory constrains the rate at which the kinetic energy of winds is generated.

This means that kinetic energy is generated by horizontal pressure gradients only (with vertical pressure gradients balanced by gravity).
