Best Answer

The only energy sources that do not need to be created by solar influence (radiation, light or gravitational) are radioactivity and non-solar gravitation. This limits the sources to:

  • the portion of geothermal energy resulting from radioactive decay inside the Earth
  • nuclear power plants
  • tidal power plants as tides are a primarily result of the moon's gravitational attraction

Is chemical energy a inexhaustible resource?

As long as there are mechanisms, such as living organisms, that convert sunlight into chemical energy, and as long as the sun continues producing sunlight, chemical energy is an inexhaustible resource. There would be a finite amount of energy that could be exploited, because the sun's output is finite, but as a resource it wouldn't "run out".
