Because it is transfered to a long distance with less loses as compared to other form of energy
A2. Electrical energy can be transported across "empty" space and can be stored and can be transformed to other forms of energy.
A3. Electrical, much like geothermal, is a natural energy source that can be harvested from lightning and other weather related sources. In theory, we should be able to use these sources to create usable energy: the source producing more energy that it takes to harvest it in a plant.
In an electrical iron, the useful energy is the electrical energy that is converted into heat energy, which is used to press and remove wrinkles from clothing. The wasted energy in an electrical iron is primarily in the form of heat loss to the surrounding environment, as well as in the form of sound energy and electromagnetic radiation. Efficient design and insulation can help minimize wasted energy in an electrical iron.
Nuclear energy is not useful in powering a flashlight because it is not readily convertible into electrical energy that can power the light bulb in a flashlight.
A system that converts thermal energy into a form of useful mechanical or electrical energy is called a heat engine. This process involves using the temperature difference between a heat source and a heat sink to produce work, which can be used to generate electricity or perform mechanical tasks.
electricity can be useful in alot of things. You will not imagine how much you use electricity throughout the day. You mostly use it for light. right now you are using electricity while you are reading this. You use it when your watching TV, or playing video games, or using an air conditioning machine. that is how electricity is useful.
I wouldn't say that electrical energy "uses" other types of energy; probably you mean that you can convert other types of energy to electrical energy. Most types of energy can be converted to electrical energy, or actually all of them (as long as there is some useful energy left) - including heat energy, nuclear energy, chemical energy, mechanical energy, etc.

The useful energy that comes out of a light bulb is primarily in the form of light and heat. The electrical energy is converted into light energy that illuminates the surroundings and heat energy that warms up the light bulb and its surroundings.
Thermal energy to electrical energy
A system that converts thermal energy into a form of useful mechanical or electrical energy is called a heat engine. This process involves using the temperature difference between a heat source and a heat sink to produce work, which can be used to generate electricity or perform mechanical tasks.

The energy itself is used the same way as any other energy - to heat our homes, operate electrical appliances, etc. Once such energy is converted to a useful form - usually electrical energy - it makes no difference (for the ability to use it) where the energy comes from.
The form of energy carried by moving electrical charges is electrical energy. It is the energy associated with the flow of electrons through a conductor.
Electric cables carry electrical energy in the form of electricity.
The rate at which electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy depends on the efficiency of the system or device in use. Efficiency is a measure of how much of the electrical energy is successfully converted into useful energy, such as mechanical, light, or heat energy. Higher efficiency systems will convert more electrical energy into the desired form with less waste.
In flashlight, light energy that is not being used effectively is being released in the form of heat. This is due to inefficiencies in the conversion of electrical energy to light energy, resulting in some of the energy being lost as heat.
