Seasonally the media raiseraises this topic, as if the world that is looking for substitutes for the oil is about to access to hisits calling. So, why this search for substitutes for the oil? And is there really any substitutessubstitute for the foreseeable future?
The world is atfacing the greatest threat today to the sovereignty of oil thattoday and there is a high risk toof depletion of the black gold.

Moreover the available substitutes cannot replace to oil and the oil production access towill reach a climax and goinggo downhill resulting in economic disaster for the sophisticated industries.
The current substitutes whothat can replace to oil environmentally as a source of renewable andsource of clean energy isinclude:-
1- Solar energy: itIt is an important future source forof the energy production,; especially in sunlight richersunlight-rich countries.
2- Wind power: thoseIt is enjoyed by some regions, but its energy production is low because the right wind speed and direction is difficult to find throughout the year. But the energy produced is clean and medium cost.
