An energy pyramid is a diagram that compares the energy used by producers, primary consumers, and other trophic levels. In other words, an energy pyramid shows how much energy is available at each trophic level. Energy is lost at each trophic level of a food chain.

Between each level, up to 90 percent of the energy is lost as heat into the environment. other pyramid models illustrate an ecosystem's biomass and distribution of organisms.
