Most forms of electricity generation use fossil fuels.

All common fuels (coal, oil, natural gas, petroleum) are fossil fuels. Coal is a fossil fuel and it makes most of the electricity in the world.

Hydrogen, bodiesel, digestor methane, bagasse (and similar agricultural waste), alcohol and wood (including paper etc.) are about the only non-fossil fuels.
