It's true that fat can be used as energy. The body typically uses carbohydrate for energy, but it can use fat and even protein if necessary.
Does body fat give you energy?
Some body fat can give off energy. It depends on which type...meaning there are different types of body fat. Of course, some good and some bad. Fat is energy that has been stored for a later time. If you take in a lot of energy (like eat a lot of food), and don't use it up right away (through exercise), your liver will turn that energy into long chains of lipid (glycogen). Carbohydrates are used for quick energy for your body to use, but if unused, the body needs to somehow store that energy, and turns it into "fat". So yes, fat can give you energy--as it is a form of energy.
What does fat help your body?
Fat is your body's way of storing energy for longer periods of time. If you were unable to eat anything for a long time, your body would be able to use the energy stored in fat to stay alive. Without fat, a person could only survive a couple days without food. Your body can also use body fat to suppliment your energy supplies if you are burning more calories than you consume.
