An energy counter is a counter that, unlike most other counters, is placed on players rather than objects. They may be used to pay the costs of activated and triggered abilities.
Most cards that grant energy counters also provide a way to spend them. However, because they are placed on the player rather than a specific object, energy counters from one card can be saved up and spent on abilities of other cards. Energy counters don't go away as phases or steps end, or as the turn ends, and no cards remove energy counters from other players. They can only be removed when the player chooses to spend them.
