harnessable
Able to control
Harnessable describes something that can be captured and put to use, like a horse fitted with a harness for work.
The term appears most often with natural forces or abstract resources: harnessable wind energy, harnessable talent.
It suggests potential waiting to be directed toward practical ends.
