Alternative energy resources that could help mitigate the impact of dwindling petroleum supplies include solar, wind, and hydropower. These renewable energy sources are sustainable and can help reduce dependency on finite fossil fuels. Additionally, advancements in battery technology and electric vehicles can also contribute to reducing reliance on petroleum for transportation.
If you are referring to the company in the Harvard Business Review case study, Midland Energy Resources never existed. Though inspired by real events, the case did not represent a specific situation at an existing company.
Petroleum provides about 35% of the world's total energy consumption.
Petroleum contains chemical energy that is released when it is burned to produce heat and power. This energy comes from the carbon and hydrogen molecules present in petroleum.
Potential energy is obtained from petroleum as a stored energy source. When petroleum is burned, the chemical potential energy stored within it is converted into heat energy that can be used to generate electricity or power vehicles.
The energy from the petroleum is only accessable when the fuel is burnt, if the petroleum itself doesn't undergo burning the energy isn't released. So the energy is called 'stored' or 'potential' energy.
Oil shale and tar sands
Solar and wind renewable energy, of course. Oil shale and tar sands
Renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen).
There are lots of potential energy sources; some of them include solar energy, wind energy, nuclear energy, and many others more.
Solar energy is stored in coal and petroleum.
Solar energy, geothermal energy, wind, petroleum, coal, uranium (nuclear fuel).
