Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

coal

oil

natural gas

These are the big three. Of the three, oil is the most important. It is relatively clean burning -- relative to coal which might be more abundant.

Natural gas is more abundant, but it is awfully hard to store.

If all else fails, coal, but coal is a very dirty burn.
