电能是由电荷流动产生的一种能量形式。能量是指工作或用力移动物体的能力。在电能的情况下，力是带电粒子之间的电吸引或排斥。电能可以是势能或动能，但它通常作为势能遇到，其是由于带电粒子或电场的相对位置而存储的能量。带电粒子通过导线或其他介质的运动称为电流或电流。还存在静电，其由物体上的正电荷和负电荷的不平衡或分离引起。静电是一种电势能。如果积聚足够的电荷，则可以释放电能以形成具有电动能的火花（或甚至闪电）。按照惯例，电场的方向始终显示为指向正粒子放置在场中时将移动的方向。在处理电能时，这一点很重要，因为最常见的电流载流子是电子，与质子相比，它在相反的方向上移动。

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge. Energy is the ability to do work or apply force to move an object. In the case of electrical energy, the force is electrical attraction or repulsion between charged particles. Electrical energy may be either potential energy or kinetic energy, but it’s usually encountered as potential energy, which is energy stored due to the relative positions of charged particles or electric fields. The movement of charged particles through a wire or other medium is called current or electricity. There is also static electricity, which results from an imbalance or separation of the positive and negative charges on an object. Static electricity is a form of electrical potential energy. If sufficient charge builds up, the electrical energy may be discharged to form a spark (or even lightning), which has electrical kinetic energy. By convention, the direction of an electric field is always shown pointing in the direction a positive particle would move if it was placed in the field. This is important to remember when working with electrical energy, because the most common current carrier is an electron, which moves in the opposite direction compared with a proton.
