1. Mechanically - an object moving due to a force acting on it, e.g. pushing, pulling, stretching or squashing
2. Electrically - a charge moving through a potential difference, e.g. charges moving round a circuit
3. By heating - energy transferred from a hotter object to a colder object, e.g. heating a pan of water on a hob
4. By radiation - energy transferred e.g. by light/sound waves, e.g. energy from the Sun reaching Earth as light
