Definition
能量 (néngliàng) is a broad term for 'energy' — it covers both physical energy (e.g., solar energy) and a person's inner energy or capabilities. 能源 (néngyuán) specifically means energy as a resource (fuel, power source), while 活力 (huólì) refers to liveliness and vigor, not physical energy.
