Nearly all energy comes from the sun.
Electrical energy comes from the sun in a roundabout way, e. g. it can come from the power of water falling down a mountain. The water fell here as rain, and we know the rain is made by the sun's heat evaporating the water on the earth's surface. The light and energy from coal also comes from the sun in a roundabout way. Coal was made by trees and plants. Those trees and plants grew with the help of sunlight, and changed the sun's energy into chemical energy. When we burn coal, some of this energy is set free.
Energy which we use to drive car engines comes from petrol, which also was made with the aid of the sun in a roundabout way. Plants and animals ate the plants died millions of years ago. It was these parts that made petroleum, from which petrol and oil are now used by people.
