As far as I know the sun provides ALL of the energy used by life on earth. Except maybe nuclear by humans, but photosynthesis in plants and that is the same energy stored in sugars and then used by metabolism from eating the sugars, oil is the same energy stored millions of years ago and being used now, same with coal, and solar obviously and without the sun there would be no wind so wind power too. And OTHER stars created the heavy elements used for nuclear power by the process of fission(In Theory).
