The primary deciding factors as to which type or types will prove best include long term availability, cost effectiveness, environmental and personal health risks, as well as how they are utilized in terms of specific application. Industry experts contend that over the next thirty-to-forty years, the usage trend will continue to be petroleum as the dominant energy source, followed by coal, gas, renewable energy sources, and nuclear power. In spite of this fact, alternative fuel sources will continue to be a significant issue with regard to future energy demands. Bibliography lists 20 sources.
