Losses are mainly due to electrical resistance.
Energy is lost during the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity from power stations to homes in the form of heat due to resistance in power lines and transformers. This energy loss is known as transmission and distribution loss, and it occurs as electricity travels long distances over power lines. Transformers are also used to step up or step down voltage, which can result in additional energy loss.
Energy is lost in hydroelectric power generation through factors such as friction in turbines, resistance in transmission lines, and inefficiencies in the conversion of kinetic energy into electrical energy. These losses reduce the overall efficiency of hydroelectric power plants.
Energy is lost in a power station primarily in the form of heat due to inefficiencies in electricity generation processes like friction, resistance, and heat dissipation from power plants and power transmission facilities. This energy loss contributes to the overall inefficiency of power generation and utilization systems.
Energy is lost during electricity transmission mainly in the form of heat due to resistance in the wires. This phenomenon is known as transmission loss. The longer the distance the electricity travels, the more energy is lost. Upgrading infrastructure and using high-voltage transmission lines can help reduce these losses.
Wind energy can be lost due to inefficiencies in the conversion process, such as friction in the turbine blades and gearboxes. Additionally, wind energy can be lost if turbines are not positioned optimally to capture maximum wind energy. Finally, power grid limitations and transmission losses can also result in a loss of wind energy during distribution.

The reason electricity is trsnsmitted at very high voltage is to reduce energy loss. As Power = V x I and heat loss = I2 R. Thus if I the current is low the energy lost in the transmission cables will be minimal. The reason electricity is trsnsmitted at very high voltage is to reduce energy loss.

I don't know quite what your question means. Energy does not change, though it can change its form, such as kinetic energy changing into heat energy in your car brakes. If electrical energy is transmitted from one place to another by conducting cables, the energy reappears at the far end, except that some will be lost by heating of the cables. Similarly the energy produced by the car engine is transmitted through the transmission to the wheels, except for a proportion which is absorbed in the transmission and appears as heat.
It's lost as thermal heat to surroundings.

Some heat is lost in the vapour that rises from the power plant.
A lossless transmission line is when no energy is lost during transmission of energy from a particular source to destination by a certain material, ie. copper wire. In other words, this material that transmits energy, absorbs none of the energy transmitted. No energy is lost to the material during transfer of energy. It is like saying it is an absolutely perfect conductor having no resistance.
On average, about 5-6 of electricity is lost during transmission from power plants to homes and businesses.
