Because it has no charge
Static electricity has no charge. This means that it doesn't move. The electrons in the wire that are pumped around the circuit by the battery do move and thus have charge. You can only use power that has a charge or "moves".
Lightning is an example of static electricity
It is static electricity or in other words just static, or just a static charge.
Yes, static electricity is the study of charge in rest
An example is rubbing your head with a balloon. If you rubbed hard enough, your hair should stand up. Also, when you are VERY close to lightning, your hair stands up!!

The flow of electrons or the existence of a static charge.
Static means it doesn't move. This is essentially what static electricity is, a charge tht has no current. It is made by the transfer of electrons, as a pose to a cell or battery.
It requires a power source such as a battery, generator, or static electricity, (which is a form of a battery).
Static electricity DOES have an electric charge.
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
As the word static means motionless or stationary, the static electricity refers to electrons that are stationary. Hence, static electricity is a charge and not a current.
Everything is made up of atoms and they hold electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons can move. Static electricity is the presence of either too many electrons (negative charge) or too few electrons (positive charge). The movement of static electricity ... normally called an "electric current" ... is the flow of electrons from one place to another.

in my own explanation static charge is a reaction between the (+)protons and (-)electrons an the effect of this reaction is called static electricity.

The loss of static electricity as a charge moves off an object is known as an electro static discharge.
