Which countries have no energy resources?
All nations have energy resources, even if it's just solar, which is a small and unreliable source as you near the poles and an expensive source everywhere else. But some nations have more resources than others. Japan for example is very low in domestic energy resources and relies upon imported resources for most of its energy. There are small coral reef island nations with nothing but sun, wind and tide. Some nations have reliable wind energy resources, either on-shore or off-shore. Some have geothermal. Iceland is a good example. Some have fossil fuel reserves of coal, gas and oil. The US for example has HUGE resources of fossil fuels. Some have biomass energy resources such as trees or agricultural waste. Some have nuclear resources of fissionable materials. Some have potential for wave or tidal energy. Some have hydroelectric resources of running rivers. So there are NO nations with NO resources, just some with more than others.
