There are a great many ways that energy can be stored or released. Photosynthesis is an important method (without which we would not have anything to eat) which stores the energy of sunlight in the form of sugar. It is then released by the process of metabolism. Electrical energy can be stored in batteries, and released through various electrical devices. Energy can be stored mechanically by tightening a spring; this used to be the main energy source for wrist watches, although now they are usually powered by batteries instead. The energy stored in a spring can then be released through the use of gears and ingenious mechanical contraptions. Energy could be stored by pumping water to a high elevation, and released by allowing the water to fall, turning a water wheel as it falls. There are many other methods as well.
