radiation
The type of energy transfer that can take place with little or no matter present is radiation.
The thermosphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere has a lack of particle density and little thermal energy transfer. This layer is located above the mesosphere and experiences an increase in temperature with altitude due to absorption of high-energy solar radiation. The thermosphere is the highest layer of the atmosphere where space shuttles and satellites orbit.
Some forces, such as gravity or the electrostatic force, can act without direct contact. If a force is applied over a certain distance (such as, when an object falls), work is done, i.e., energy is transferred. Ah, but what is direct contact? One electrostatic field pushing against another? If I touch something, it is the electrostatic fields pushing against each other. There is no direct contact!
chemical potential energy (in the fuel being burned) to heat (thermal) energy and a little light energy.
Chemical energy is transferred to electrical energy! :) :p

The thermosphere and exosphere layers of the atmosphere have little thermal energy because they are very thin and have low air density. These layers are composed of very few gas molecules, which results in very high temperatures but low thermal energy due to the lack of molecules to transfer heat.

When thermal energy is absorbed the substance expands to some extent that is if it is a ball it becomes oblated to a very small extent as a balloon expands on blown with air , if it is a lengthy object the length becomes little longer.
First, a toaster uses electrical energy. Then, it uses this electrical energy and the mechanical energy of you pushing on the lever to produce thermal energy, or heat, and sound as the object in the toaster pops up.
as little as 10% of the energy at any trophic level is transfer to the next level
