The five main types of energy are kinetic, potential, chemical, thermal and electrical. Kinetic energy is energy that can be transferred from one object to another by a force. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object due to its position or condition. Chemical energy is energy that is stored as a result of the chemical bonds between atoms. Thermal energy is energy that is transferred from hotter objects to cooler ones. Electrical energy is energy that is produced when electric charges move through a circuit.
