Energy Chains (also: E-Chains or cable carrier systems) have the following task: Secure supply of energy and data to mobile consumer equipment.
Means, if you have a moving part (e.g. in a machine), your cables and hoses which are moving as well have to be protected. This protection is done by an Energy Chain.
See the related link for some nice examples.
how is the energy in a food chain different form the energy of the wind?
they are all the same
Energy can be lost in a food chain by heat or waste.
Energy enters a food chain in the form of sunlight, which is converted into chemical energy by producers through photosynthesis. When energy leaves a food chain, it is typically in the form of heat after being used by organisms for metabolism and daily functions.
The energy flux of a food chain goes from producer to decomposer. The energy flux along the food chain is always unilateral.
Producers, such as plants, are the organisms in a food chain that add energy to every part of the chain. They do this through the process of photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight into energy that can be used by other organisms in the food chain.
Ultimately, the energy that drives a food chain is solar energy. Plants absorb and convert this energy, which insects, birds, and other herbivores transfer up the food chain until it reaches humans.
The transfer of food energy from one organism to another in stages is called a food chain. In a food chain, energy is passed from producers (plants) to primary consumers (herbivores) to secondary consumers (carnivores) and so on. Each transfer of energy represents a trophic level in the ecosystem.
because it needs a lot of energy to get the food chain to cycle.

Energy. In general, only about 10% of the energy available is able to be passed up the food chain.
