Thermal energy, heat, is used in all sorts of ways. We use it to keep warm (by heating structures and vehicles), prepare food (both at home and commercially), and to make zillions of products (manufacturing and industrial applications). We can convert thermal energy into electrical energy, too. Thermal energy from the sun supports life on this planet. We've used that for as long as a man has been on earth. There just isn't a way to count all the applications. Use the link below to the Wikipedia post on heat to read more.
