Kinetic energy is associated with motion and energy related to position is called potential energy. Some things, like a swinging pendulum or tide water, have maximum potential energy at the extremes of their movements and potential energy in between. Energy exists in various forms including mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, radiant, and nuclear.

Renewable energy is from energy sources that are replenished by nature or are virtually inexhaustible. These include biomass (plant materials and animal waste used as fuel), waterpower (rivers, rain, and tides), geothermal, wind, and sunlight. Nonrenewable energy is in limited quantities that cannot be replaced except over eons, like fossil fuels (coal, oil, and nuclear).
