Energy delivery is currently dominated by burning fossil fuels such as gas, oil and coal. These fuels pollute the environment in varying ways and their use depletes resources which could be better used for manufacturing. 

This need not be the case - energy can be produced at a geographical location, stored, then transported by a variety of means and materials, none of which involve burning fossil-fuels.

Environmentally benign options for energy delivery include:

Hydrogen technology

• An advanced system of energy distribution which is gradually achieving global acceptance. Development of this technology has been occurring worldwide over the past 25 years
• Hydrogen, manufactured by electrolysis of water [exploiting Renewable Energy sources to provide the electricity used in the electrolysis process] and used in Fuel Cells permits the storage and on-demand delivery of electricity with almost no pollution.
• RENZ research indicates that many multinational corporations have invested billions of dollars in researching the use of Hydrogen and associated Fuel Cells for this purpose. 

Organic Hydrocarbons

• such as methanol and ethanol derived from biomass such as wood waste [methanol for example] and sugar cane [ethanol]  

Ammonia [NH₃]

• broken down into Nitrogen and Hydrogen, by catalysis, so the hydrogen could be used in, for example, a Fuel Cell to produce electricity or in an Internal Combustion engine to produce mechanical energy

Compressed air

• bottled, transported and used to power things like air-operated hand tools

Steam

• can be transported over short distances in pipes to power, for example, turbines

Electricity

• Can be transported by wires, as it has been for many decades into the present
