Most nonrenewable energy sources are fossil fuels: coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Carbon is the main element in fossil fuels. For this reason, the time period that fossil fuels formed (about million. 6 The Energy Transition The Clean Energy Future Is Arriving Faster Than You Think The United States is pivoting away from fossil fuels and toward wind, solar and other renewable energy, even. 7 fossilt brensel 8 Fossilt brensel er hydrokarbonholdige stoffer som kull, olje, naturgass, oljeskifer og tjæresand. 9 Fossile brensler er også den viktigste energikilden for produksjon av elektrisk energi. 10 Fossil energi eller fossilt brensel er hydrokarbonhaldige stoff som kol, olje og naturgass. Dei finst i jordskorpa, og blir utvunne som ei kjelde til energi ved forbrenning, og som råstoff for blant anna plastproduksjon. Utnyttinga av fossilt brensel har bidratt sterkt til den industrielle utviklinga. 12
