The main goal of this article is to present a simple way to describe non-equilibrium systems in energy space and to obtain new spacial solution that complements recent results of B.I. Lev and A.D. Kiselev, Phys. Rev. E 82, (2010) 031101. The novelty of this presentation is based on the kinetic equation which may be further used to describe the non-equilibrium systems, as Brownian system in the energy space. Starting with the basic kinetic equation and the Fokker-Plank equation for the distribution function of the macroscopic system in the energy space, we obtain steady states and fluctuation relations for the non-equilibrium systems. We further analyze properties of the stationary steady states and describe several nonlinear models of such systems.
