| Biomass | We burn these renewable sources to make electricity, examples are: wood, crops, garbage, landfill gas, and alcohol fuel. |
| Propane | This is LP or LPG which is liquefied natural gas. |
| Solar | This type of energy uses a photovoltaic cell to generate electricity by heating silicon with heat and light radiation from our closest star. |
| Hydropower | This type of energy uses tidal forces, or the force of water flowing through a dam to generate electricity. |
| Coal | This type of energy is stored in the plant remains that form this type of organic sedimentary rock. |
| Geothermal | This uses the thermal heat energy of the Earth to warm water & generate electricity. |
| Wind | This electricity is the product of wind farms. |
| Nuclear | This type of energy uses fission, or the breaking of atomic bonds to create energy for electricity from Uranium. |
| Natural Gas | This mostly methane gas is burned for energy and electricity. Many pipelines criss-cross our state transporting this type of gas. |
| Petroleum | This is refined from crude oil, the once living remains of plants and animals from millions of years ago. |
