No. Alternative energy means energy sources other than fossil fuels.
In 2012, around 79% of total energy production in the U.S. came from fossil fuels, which include coal, natural gas, and petroleum. This made fossil fuels the dominant source of energy in the country at that time.
As of recent estimates, fossil fuels supply about 80% of the world's energy needs. This includes oil, natural gas, and coal, which remain the dominant sources of energy for electricity generation, transportation, and heating. Despite the growth of renewable energy sources, fossil fuels continue to play a critical role in the global energy landscape. Transition efforts are ongoing, but significant reliance on fossil fuels persists.
Fossil fuels are exhaustible. Electric energy is an alternative.
