... Nuclear power plants use a different process, called nuclear fission, to release nuclear energy. In fission, a single large nucleus is split into two or more smaller nuclei. In both fusion and fission, small quantities of mass are converted into large quantities of energy. Energy can be stored in fi ...

If you throw a stone into a pond, circular waves move along the surface since some of the stones kinetic energy was transferred. The substance through which waves travel is called a medium. This can be solid, liquid or gas. Ligh ...

... The energy in moving wind or water can be harnessed and turned into electricity. Sunlight can be captured in solar panels and also turned into electricity. These options do not require any burning so no air pollution is produced, however because windmills take up land and power dams effect the water ...

Energy storage
Energy storage is accomplished by devices or physical media that store energy to perform useful processes at a later time. A device that stores energy is sometimes called an accumulator.Many forms of energy produce useful work, heating or cooling to meet societal needs. These energy forms include chemical energy, gravitational potential energy, electrical potential, electricity, temperature differences, latent heat, and kinetic energy. Energy storage involves converting energy from forms that are difficult to store (electricity, kinetic energy, etc.) to more conveniently or economically storable forms. Some technologies provide only short-term energy storage, and others can be very long-term such as power to gas using hydrogen or methane and the storage of heat or cold between opposing seasons in deep aquifers or bedrock. A wind-up clock stores potential energy (in this case mechanical, in the spring tension), a rechargeable battery stores readily convertible chemical energy to operate a mobile phone, and a hydroelectric dam stores energy in a reservoir as gravitational potential energy. Ice storage tanks store ice (thermal energy in the form of latent heat) at night to meet peak demand for cooling. Fossil fuels such as coal and gasoline store ancient energy derived from sunlight by organisms that later died, became buried and over time were then converted into these fuels. Even food (which is made by the same process as fossil fuels) is a form of energy stored in chemical form.
