Let M be a compact smooth manifold, let [Formula: see text] be a unital involutive subalgebra of the von Neumann algebra £ (H) of bounded linear operators of some Hilbert space H, let [Formula: see text] be the unital involutive algebra [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be an hermitian projective right [Formula: see text]-module of finite type, and let [Formula: see text] be the gauge group of unitary elements of the unital involutive algebra [Formula: see text] of right [Formula: see text]-linear endomorphisms of [Formula: see text]. We first prove that noncommutative geometry provides the suitable setting upon which a consistent theory of energy representations [Formula: see text] can be built. Three series of energy representations are constructed. The first consists of energy representations of the gauge group [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] being the group of unitary elements of [Formula: see text], associated with integrable Riemannian structures of M, and the second series consists of energy representations associated with (d, ∞)-summable K-cycles over [Formula: see text]. In the case where [Formula: see text] is a von Neumann algebra of type II 1 a third series is given: we introduce the notion of regular quasi K-cycle, we prove that regular quasi K-cycles over [Formula: see text] always exist, and that each of them induces an energy representation.
