Let we know little bit about energy and energy sources.
The sun is the biggest source of energy for the earth. The energy that actually reaches the earth is about 400,000,000,000,000 kilowatt hours per day. This energy is converted into food by plants. The capacity of the doing work is called energy. Coal, petroleum, natural gas, wood, water, air, sun, tide, geothermal, etc. are the other form of energy. Great amount of heat deep into the earth is known as geothermal energy. Mechanical or electrical power generated by the wind is called wind energy. The energy stored in the nuclei of the atoms is called nuclear energy. Biomass, garbage, sea tides, solar energy are the alternate sources of energy.
