Because when converting from one type of energy to another, something is always lost in the conversion.

It's like pouring water between two buckets and always spilling a little.

Let's say you're putting 100W of mechanical energy into turning the generator.

This maybe gives you 80W of electric energy out from the generator.

If you then put those 80W into a motor, you get maybe 60W of mechanical energy out of the motor.

For each conversion you lose a bit more.
