    Hydroelectric dams and wind energy are the principal sources of electric energy in Chile. Wind farms use the kinetic energy of the wind to generate electric energy. Solar power plants use the energy from the sun to generate electric energy. Light and thermal energy are the forms that electric energy is transformed into when powering devices like lamps and electric stoves.
