Errr, chemical energy can be burned to produce heat energy. (e.g. burning coal (carbon) or splitting atoms for nuclear energy [still chem. energy theoretically] -> creates heat energy -> powers electrical generator to make elec. energy.)

Advantages would be more heat energy released. Disadvantages would be health concerns, etc.
