Fuel Types

Fuel types refer to the different sources of energy used to power engines and generate electricity. Common fuels include gasoline and diesel, which are liquid fuels derived from crude oil, primarily used in vehicles. Natural gas is a gaseous fuel often used in homes and power plants for cleaner combustion. Coal is a solid fossil fuel mainly burned in power plants to produce electricity. Renewable fuels like biomass, solar, and wind generate energy without depleting resources or emitting harmful pollutants. Each fuel type varies in availability, cost, environmental impact, and efficiency, influencing their use across different applications.
