Geothermal and nuclear, not fission and fusion. Unless you want to get really picky and say that heavy elements are the result of supernovae, and are thus a form of sunlight (or at least solar power), in which case only fusion power.

Sunlight is photons are other radiation. Therefore lightning, wind, and hydropower.

Geothermal would be the only answer I can think of. That energy comes from the inside of Earth.

Magnetic fields are not stored sunlight. Moving a coil thru a magnetic field will induce a current in the wire and the electrons ( which also are not stored sunlight ) moving thru the wire can be used to do work. Thus amagnet is a non-stored source of energy.
