Here are a few examples:

Engines (gasoline, diesel, gas turbine) - Convert chemical energy to mechanical energy.

Electric motors - Convert electrical energy to mechanical energy.

Wind turbines - Convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical energy (which is then commonly turned into electrical energy by a generator hooked to the turbine).

A light bulb - Turns electrical energy into light and heat.

A wood stove - turns chemical energy into heat (and a bit of light)

A roller coaster - converts back-and-forth between potential energy (the cars high on a hill) to kinetic energy (the cars going fast).

A solar cell - Turns light into electricity
