Advantages of different types of fuel sources:
 • Petroleum-based fuels are widely available, reliable, and have a high energy density, making them ideal for transportation.
 • Natural gas is often cleaner and more efficient than petroleum fuels, and releases fewer pollutants when burned.
 • Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower provide an abundant and renewable source of clean energy.Disadvantages of different types of fuel sources:
 • Petroleum-based fuels are non-renewable and produce pollutants when burned.
 • Natural gas may still have some environmental impacts and requires infrastructure to transport it.
 • Renewable sources of energy can be intermittent, such as wind and solar, which means they aren't always available when energy demands peak.
