Any source of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal, or other energy. Primary energy sources take many forms, including nuclear energy, fossil energy such as oil, coal and natural gas and renewable sources like wind, solar, geothermal and hydropower. These primary sources are converted to electricity, a secondary energy source, which flows through power lines and other transmission infrastructure to your home and business.
