Best Answer

Energy is not made. Nor destroyed, either, for that matter. Energy is simply converted from one type to another.

A power plant converts some other form of energy to electricity. For example, water dam generators convert moving, or kinetic energy to electrical energy.

What are some examples of energy sources?

During photosynthesis, a plant - whcih is a producer - absorbs light energy from the sun and converts it into glucose, which is what the plant uses for energy. Some of the energy that the plant made may be released into the atmosphere as heat, some will be eaten by insects and other herbovores, which are called primary consumers. Secondary consumers may eat the primary consumers, getting energy from eating them. Consumers get energy by eating other consumers or producers.
