Complicated question, with many details to think about...
But in short, gravitational power in connection earth and air combined with light from the sun.
Hot air goes up, and thereby change the presure... Cold air head for the low presure areas... And alot of wind is being generated... This is the cause for most of the energy.
But there are many other factors too giving energy to the atmosphere to a less extent... Northern light is nice too, but there the energy also comes from the sun, but via ions end electric fields in combination with the magnetic field created in the ground under influence of the gravitation in connection to the the moon. And there is light and cosmic radiation etc...
Another source of energy for the atmosphere is comming from earth itself... Radioactive decay and also solidification of the molten part of the inner earth releases energy in the form of heat. In turn giving some extra energy for the atmosphere.

What is source of all energy in our atmosphere?
the sun_________________________________________Nuclear energy (more specifically fusion nuclear energy) that is the source of sun energy
What source of energy heats the atmosphere?
The Sun
Is a solar energy system considered as a blue energy source or a green energy source?
green energy source
Most solar energy that reaches earth's atmosphere is absorbed by whtat?
absorbed by earth's surface
What is the main source of energy for your sun?
Thermonuclear fusion, where four regular hydrogen nuclei, which are protons, are converted into helium-4. It is the main energy source of most stars.
The is the source of all energy in our atmosphere.?
The source of all energy in our atmosphere is the sun.Some energy is reflected back into space, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, some is absorbed by land and water on Earth's surface (all of the above) When Earth receives energy from the Sun.
What is the source of energy for our atmosphere?
The Sun.
What is the energy source for the motion of gas in the atmosphere?
Kenetic Energy

What is the main source of energy for convection in the atmosphere and the oceans?
The Sun is the main source of energy for convection in the atmosphere and the oceans. The Sun, heat radiated form the Sun is the main source of energy driving convection in the atmosphere and oceans. There is also a small input form geothermal energy.
