Most of Jupiter's internal heat is due to its contraction, when its contracts it changes potential energy into kinetic energy and through this energy change a large amount of friction heat is created.

What is Jupiter's interior made of?

Jupiter's interior is thought to be composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, which make up the majority of its mass. It is theorized to have a dense core made of rock, metal, and other elements, surrounded by layers of liquid metallic hydrogen and molecular hydrogen. The exact composition and structure of Jupiter’s interior is still not completely understood and is the subject of ongoing scientific research.

Why does Jupiter have metallic hydrogen in central interior?

Jupiter is a very massive planet composed mostly of hydrogen. It is massive enough that below a certain depth the pressure from the overlying layers is enough to convert the hydrogen into its liquid metallic state.
