The electron transport chain provides the most energy.

Oxidation in chemistry is when an electron is stripped from an atom or molecule. In this case, an electron is stripped from the phosphate group in ATP so it can be used for energy, hence oxidative phosphorylation. The electron then moves through several processes that generate energy the cell can use. That's why it is most commonly referred to as the electron transport chain.
All of the steps make ATP, but the one that makes the most is the third step, electron transport

Most of the energy comes from the electron transport chain by oxidative phosphorylation. However there is energy produced in the Krebs cycle and Glycolysis this is called substrate level phosphorylation.

Most of the NADH that delivers high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain comes from the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) during cellular respiration. This cycle generates NADH as a byproduct when converting acetyl-CoA to CO2, which is then used to produce ATP in the electron transport chain.

The majority of energy within the mitochondria is released during the process of cellular respiration, specifically during the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation. This is where the majority of ATP, the cell's primary energy source, is produced.
