creating a perfect environment

Lack of gasoline in Palestine is forcing people to switch to cooking oil and other energy sources such as electric. Perhaps, it will work to the nation's advantage, creating a perfect environment to incubate the world's next major energy technology.


Are there any mistakes?

Thanks.

It's all fine except "such as electric."

Can you explain more what you meant about that?

Maybe I should have said electricity - electricity as a energy source.

I think of electricity as the product of energy. Do you mean using batteries to power cars?

I guess you are right to say that electricity is a product of energy. If so, I believe you also think of cooking oil as an energy product which is derived from crops.
Grammar GeekDo you mean using batteries to power cars?
Yes. I gave two examples: electricity and cooking oil (biodiesel)

Are you still confused? Could you tell me what's bothering

I think that using the word resource is better than source. Resource's definition in Oxford dictionary is a supply of sth that a country has and can use. So the word resource accords with context of your sentence.

I just want to confirm that you're talking about energy sources for vehicles. I think I'd use electric batteries, or simply batteries.
