Capacitors and batteries.
The basic form of energy present in a lightning bolt is electrical energy. It is generated from the build-up and discharge of electrical charges in the atmosphere during thunderstorms.

Usually a circuit is connected to a power source, which could be a battery or an outlet. When this happens current flows through the circuit. The power supply raises electrical charges through the required potential difference, and then in the circuit the charges flow down the potential gradient giving up their energy.
An electric appliance uses up electrical energy during its operation to power its components and perform its intended functions. This energy is typically supplied through a power source such as an electrical outlet or battery.
In real life, electrical energy can be converted into potential energy when a battery charges up by storing electrical energy as chemical potential energy. When the battery is connected to a circuit, this stored potential energy is converted back into electrical energy to power devices.

The sudden movement of electrical charges from one object to another is known as an electrical discharge. This can occur due to a build-up of static electricity or during a lightning strike.
Magic. Look up capacitors on wikipedia!!A capacitor stores electrical charges in its plates.Both wrong. A capacitor stores energy as an electric field developed in the dielectric between its plates. A good dielectric with high permittivity (once called dielectric constant) concentrates this field, allowing more energy to be stored in a capacitor having the same plate area and separation but a dielectric of lower permittivity.
Electrostatic energy is the type of energy which comes from the forces which electrical charges exert on each other. Simple examples of electrostatic energy are hair standing up after rubbing it on a balloon and how amber will attract particles when rubbed against another material.
The electrical energy at nuclear power plants is generated by nuclear reactions in the reactor core. These reactions produce heat, which is used to produce steam that drives turbines connected to electrical generators. This process converts the nuclear energy into electrical energy for distribution.
When you build up electrical charges on the surface of an object you get static. Static can result in a small shock if the electrical charge is given a direct conductive contact to the ground.
Static Electricity
Static
The build-up of electrical charges in one place is called static electricity. This occurs when there is an imbalance of positive and negative charges in an object or material, leading to the accumulation of charge.
When a balloon is blown up and released, the stored energy in the stretched rubber is converted into kinetic energy, causing the balloon to fly around the room due to the release of air pressure. Similarly, when a battery stores energy, it holds potential electrical energy that can be converted into usable power to run electronic devices.
