In the medieval manor, the primary forms of energy used were human labor, animal power, and firewood. Human labor was used for various tasks such as farming, construction, and domestic chores. Animal power, mainly provided by horses or oxen, was utilized for plowing fields and transportation. Firewood was burned for heating, cooking, and blacksmithing.

Was the Manor house surrounded by a moat in the middle ages?
Many, but by no means all, medieval manor houses had moats. They were commonly used as defense at fortified manor houses, but they were also used at other manor houses for reasons that did not include danger of attack by armed forces. They could, for example, keep animals off a part of the grounds people might wish to keep clean and orderly, such as a nice garden, especially if they did not want to have a fence in view. There was a type of moat for this purpose called a ha-ha (no kidding), though the origins of this might date from after the Middle Ages ended. There are links below.
