How a huge energy is produced during thunderstorm?

Solution

Huge energy is produced due to the repulsion of negative charges from clouds and positive charges from ground. When the magnitude of accumulated charges becomes very large, the air being a poor conductor of electricity is no longer able to resist the flow. Hence, streaks of bright light and sound is formed in the form of energy.
