AnswerZero-point energy (not to be confused with Vacuum Energy) is the lowest possible energy that a quantum mechanical physical system may have and is the energy of the ground state. This energy comes from the fact that after you remove all thermal and kinetic energy from an atom there is still quantum mechanical harmonic vibration that arises due to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. This energy, so far, can not be taken away from a system.
