I don't think they are.
Fossil fuels contain chemical energy.
Fossil fuels are an indirect form of solar energy because solar energy was used to sustain the plant life,through photosynthesis, that is now now part of the fossil fuels.
Ummm.....
Fossil fuels
Fossil Fuels
They have been the most efficient energy source available.
Fossil fuels represent chemical energy, a form of potential energy. This energy was stored in the hydrocarbon molecules and can be released by oxidation (burning).

Fossil fuels are produced by the slow alteration of masses of vegetation, compressed underground. That vegetation originally used the energy of sunlight to grow, therefore it is the sun's energy which is stored in chemical form, in fossil fuels.
Yes, it is. Because coal and fuel(oil) are both fossil fuels and contain stored chemical energy that needs no further treatment to produce thermal energy as they burn. So fossil fuel is a form of chemical energy.
Electricity is a major form of energy. Also chemical energy which all fossil fuels posess.
fossil fuels are burned to create steam which turns these huge turbines which produces electricity hope this helped it is also a form of energy
