- - - - Heat energy (earth) → turbine → mechanical energy → generator → electrical energy
    - - Gravitational energy → tidal movement → mechanical energy → generator → electrical energy
    - - Solar
        
        Solar energy (radiation) → absorbed by earth → heat energy (water cycle) → hydropower → electrical energy
      - Wind power
      - Biomass
        
        Organic materials such as wood and plant matter
- - - - High energy output, no c02 emissions, and stable
    - - Radioactive waste, risk of accidents, high costs to build
- - - - Nuclear energy (fission) → heat (thermal energy) → (steam turbine) mechanical energy → (generator) electrical energy
    - - Energy transformation process
        
        Chemical energy (propane) → combustion → thermal energy → piston movement → mechanical energy → (car motion)
      - C₃H₈(propane) + O₂ → combustion →CO₂ + H₂O + energy (heat)
        
        The energy from the combustion of propane is used to drive the pistons in the car engine, creating mechanical energy for movement
