Nearly all energy on the earth comes originally from the sun - including fossil fuels. To the best of our knowledge, fossil fuels come from the conversion of deposits of matter that was once living into the fuel via lots of pressure, heat, and time after it was buried deep in the crust. The plants that contribute to the fossil fuels got their energy from the sun via photosynthesis. The animals got their energy ultimately from the sun by eating plants that got their energy from the sun by photosynthesis or other animals that ate the plants that got their energy from the sun by photosynthesis.
