Abstract
The problem of the `infinite energy' of a point charge is well known in connection with the Lorentz--Abraham--Dirac equation and, more significantly, in quantum electrodynamics. Though it is not stated usually, this is strongly related to the old problem of what the electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor is. Electromagnetic energies and forces will be examined thoroughly from a new point of view in the framework of Distribution Theory.
