Kinetic energy is motion––of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules, substances, and objects. POTENTIAL ENERGY

Potential energy is stored energy and the energy of position––gravitational energy. There are several forms of potential energy.
SO that is gravitational energy. The energy due to the position of a object in the influence of gravity.???
