Fat, protein and carbohydrate, although there are some others such as alcohol and glycerol that do not come into these categories that can provide energy.
carbohydrates, fats and oils, proteins are the energy giving nutrients minerals, water, vitamins are the non-energy giving nutrients
Proteins (roughly 4 calories per gram)
Fats (9 calories per gram)
carbohydrates (4 calories per gram)
Energy-containing nutrients are called vitamins. Vitamins are needed for good health. The RDA (Recommended Daily Acquirement) is the amount of vitamins the body needs every day.
Any energy-yielding nutrients that are ingested in excess will be stored as body fat.

Minerals and water
All feeds have some form of energy in them, measured in the form of TDN (total digestible nutrients), DE (digestible energy), ME (metabolizable energy), NE (net energy), etc. The only feeds that do not have any sort of energy in them are minerals--macro- and micro-minerals.
Aerobic respiration. Mitochondria are responsible for converting nutrients into the energy-yielding molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to fuel the cell's activities. This function, known as aerobic respiration, is the reason mitochondria are frequently referred to as the powerhouse of the cell. Aerobic respiration.
