Energy- is the ability to cause change. There are different types of energy such as the ones listed on the home page and this page.
Types of Energy: Kinetic energy, Potentional energy (Stored energy), Light energy, and Thermal Energy are some types of energy. There are many kinds of energies in each one. Most of them usually come from kinetic and potential energy.

Definitions of the Types of Energy
Potential Energy: Potential energy is like energy that is waiting to come out. Think of it as a ball that is rolling up a ramp. When it is going up it is creating energy inside. This is called potential energy because it sucks up all the energy and releases it later which is called kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy: Kinetic energy is when the all the energy that is released. This means that the ball is now going down the ramp and releasing all the energy that was sucked in when it was going up the ramp.
Kinetic Energy: Kinetic energy is when the all the energy that is released. This means that the ball is now going down the ramp and releasing all the energy that was sucked in when it was going up the ramp.
