ATP is made of an adenosine group attached to three phospho groups. When the last phospho group is cleaved (lost), ATP turns to ADP + Pi. This loss of Pi leads to energy release. ATP energy release is highly regulated. It occurs when enzyme...

Energy is released from ATP (adenosine triphosphate) when the chemical bond between the second and third phosphate groups is broken, creating adenosine diphosphate, a phosphate group, and releasing energy.

Yeah, it's all to do with potential energy. Definately glycogen, as far as I'm concerned. Potential energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds that CAN be used in a chemical reaction. Doesn't matter if it needs enzymes to activate it...
