It would be more correct to say 'heat is energy'. Energy is the capability to do work, and comes in many different forms, including thermal. Thermal energy can be converted to mechanical or electrical energy through steam or internal combustion engines. Thermal energy is measured in calories or BTU, and there is a mechanical equivalent of heat, 4.2 joules per calorie
