The energy of the sun is the original source of most of the energy found on earth. We get solar heat energy from the sun, and sunlight can also be used to produce electricity from solar (photovoltaic) cells. The sun heats the earth's surface and the Earth heats the air above it, causing wind.

The Sun is the planet's main energy source.
The sun is the ultimate energy source because it is the source of all other energy sources, both renewable and nonrenewable.
Energy:
- In order to perform work and to produce heat and light, energy must be delivered to a body or to a physical system.
- Energy is a quantitative property.
- Energy can be transformed in form but cannot be created or destroyed, according to the rule of conservation of energy.
Sun-derived energy:
- There are numerous sources of energy all around us. The sun is one of the most significant energy sources.
- Most of the energy on earth comes from the sun, which is where it all began.
- Solar (photovoltaic) cells can generate electricity using solar heat energy from the sun and sunlight.
- The earth's surface is heated by the sun, and the air above it is also heated, creating wind.
- The sun's evaporation of water creates clouds and rain, which give us rivers and streams that are in motion.
- Energy comes from both the wind and moving water (hydropower).
- It's also possible to store solar energy. As they develop, plants store solar energy.
- For instance, fruits, vegetables, and tree wood all have a storage of solar energy.
- Because biomass means "life" or "alive," we refer to it as such.
- These forms of energy are likewise renewable, but growing a plant or a tree obviously takes more time than obtaining heat straight from the sun.
