Heat is a form of energy that is a bit qualitative...when the temperature of 1 body is higher than the other we say the 1st body has higher heat content......Fuels do contain heat energy...but it is not what they are meant for....Fuels are basically chemicals which upon combustion get converted into products releasing energy that was stored in the bonds as heat, light and sound energy.....

How do fossil fuels store energy?
Fossil fuels contain the chemical energy that plants and algae obtained from sunlight and then stored in sugars. Just as energy chemical energy is stored in sugars, chemical energy is stored in fossil fuels. All it takes to release it is enough heat and oxygen to cause the fuel to burn.
Burning fuels which energy converted into heat energy?
Burning fuels, chemical energy is converted to heat energy
What do you call the energy which is stored in chemical fuels such as petrol?
Chemical Energy
When fuels are burned the chemical energy is changed into what energy?
heat energy
The energy stored in substances such as food and fuels is called nuclear energy?
No, this is chemical energy

Where does the energy that fuels hurricanes come from?
The energy that fuels a hurricane comes from latent heat stored in water vapor that evaporates from warm ocean water.
The energy stored in foods and fuels is potential energy?
the energy stored in foods and fuels is blank potential energy?
A special from of potential energy stored in fuels?
Chemical energy - this includes the energy stored in fuels - is a type of potential energy.
How is energy stored in fuels?
The energy in fuels is chemical energy - a type of potential energy.
Heat from chemical energy?
Fuels such as oil, wood, coal, and natural gas have energy stored in them. This kind of energy is called chemical process of burning, the energy is released in the form of heat.
Burning fuels which energy converted into heat energy?
Burning fuels, chemical energy is converted to heat energy
Is kinetic energy stored by fossil fuels?
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.
What are some good examples of energy conversions?
When you turn on a light bulb, electric energy is converted into light and heat. The energy stored in food fuels the body heat and the body's chemical processes.
The type of energy stored by fossil fuels is?
electromagnetic energy
When fossil fuels are burned they release energy stored thousands of years ago?
When fossil fuels are burned, they release energy stored years ago.
Are fuels produced from energy crops able to be stored?
Yes, fuels produced from energy crops are storable.
