The main forms are listed below : energy : energy in the form of movement - a type of mechanical energy ? energy : energy in the form of heat ? energy : the energy of an electric current ? energy : energy in the form of noise ? energy : for example , light emitted from the sun or from a light bulb ? energy : energy within substances that can produce a chemical reaction ? energy : energy from an atomic reaction . energy can be stored as energy . An example is a load , lifted by a and suspended at a high level . The weight has the potential ( in the future ) to be released and allowed to , becoming energy . Energy can also be stored when a component is deformed . This is called energy . An example is the in a watch , which is wound up , then progressively unwinds .
