Basic of Energy Resource We use energy resource every day. Energy resource is very fascinating . It surrounds us in differ en t forms such as heat, light and electricity. Any living organism relies on an external sources of energy e.g. Radiation from the sun in the case of green plants, chemical energy in some form in the case of animals (to be able to grow and reproduce). Energy is always conserved, which means that it can neither be created nor be destroyed. Energy may be transformed from one form to another. There is no absolute measure of energy, because energy is defined as the work that one system does (or can do) on another.
