Chemical energy.
Yes, both petroleum and coal are fossil fuels formed from the remains of organisms. While coal is primarily made up of decomposed plant material, petroleum is derived from ancient marine organisms. Both are crucial sources of energy but have different uses - coal is commonly used for electricity generation and industrial processes, while petroleum is used for transportation fuels and the production of various products.
Potential energy is stored in the chemical bonds of molecules found in wood. This energy is released when wood is burned or undergoes combustion.
The energy produced when burning coal can vary, but on average, one ton of coal can produce about 2,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity. Coal combustion releases heat energy due to the chemical reaction between coal and oxygen. This heat energy is used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.
Combustion (the burning of something) releases chemical energy stored in the fuel, whatever it is. The fuel might be wood, coal, oil or petroleum fuel, or something else like that. But whatever the fuel is, we burn it, generally to create heat (thermal energy). This thermal energy is used as we wish. We might convert it to mechanical energy to move a vehicle, or something like that.
The burning becomes heat energy. The heat boils water to make steam, which then turns a turbine, which is kinetic energy. The turbine can power a power generator, producing electric energy, which can then produce almost any kind of energy.
potential energy
The energy stored in oil and coal is stored as chemical energy. This energy is released when the substances are burned or oxidized.
Fuels such as oil, wood, coal, and natural gas have energy stored in them. This kind of energy is called chemical process of burning, the energy is released in the form of heat.
The primary sources of energy used in the US are petroleum, natural gas, coal, renewable energy sources such as hydropower, wind, and solar, and nuclear energy. These sources are used for electricity generation, transportation, and heating.
Petroleum contains chemical energy that is released when it is burned to produce heat and power. This energy comes from the carbon and hydrogen molecules present in petroleum.

renewable - solar and wind energy non renewable - coal and petroleum, or fossil fuels flow- water and wind
Potential energy is stored in natural gas.
Petroleum is concentrated sunlight, which was captured by plants, then compressed and heated for millions of years.
