    When the terminal (third) phosphate is cut loose, ATP becomes ADP (Adenosine diphosphate; di = two), and the stored energy is released for some biological process to utilize. The input of additional energy (plus a phosphate group) "recharges" ADP into ATP (as in my analogy the spent batteries are recharged by the input of additional energy).
