Each energy source is converted into electricity by turning a turbine, fission, or fusion. The turbine turns magnets pulling electrons off atoms and sending them to our houses. Fission and fusion where they smash atoms together combining them allowing the unneeded electrons to be collected (fusion) or splitting an atom (fission) that allows the former atom's electrons to be collected and brought to our homes.

Generation of electricity can be done in several ways. The most usual is with generators that rely on movement of conductors in magnetic fields, so the requirement here is for mechanical force to turn the generator. This can be provided by turbines driven by steam produced by coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, biomass fuels, incinerators, or it could be from wind turbines or hydro energy, or even geothermal energy, wave energy or tidal energy. Diesel generators and small gasoline generators are another way to produce electricity from oil fuel

Electricity can also be produced by solar panels directly from light energy.

Not entirely. The Second Law of Thermodynamics causes some limitations. Mainly, once energy is in the form of heat energy, only part of it can be converted to other forms of energy.
