Abstract
Energy is no doubt an intuitive concept. Following a previous analysis on the nature of elementary particles and associated elementary quantum fields, the peculiar status and role of energy is scrutinised further at elementary and larger scales. Energy physical characterisation shows that it is a primordial component of reality highlighting the quantum fields natural tendencies to interact, the elementary particles natural tendency to constitute complex bodies and every material thing natural tendency to actualise and be active. Energy therefore is a primordial notion in need of a proper assessment.
