Revived or new form of green energy getting assessed (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

regenerated

'revived' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'new form of green energy getting assessed' is the wordplay.
'new form of' indicates anagramming the letters.
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2).
'getting' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'assessed' becomes 'rated' (rating is a kind of assessing).
'green' with letters rearranged gives 'regen'.
'regen'+'e'+'rated'='REGENERATED'

'or' is the link.

(Another definition for regenerated that I've seen is " reformed completely".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
