“…Whereas operating and maintenance costs tend to be somewhat higher compared to other thermal modes of generation. [12] From another angle, the standard costs of a wide range of generation technologies in different countries are evaluated. It evaluates the relative costs of generating electricity for new plants that use various technologies; It highlights the continuing competitiveness of nuclear energy in many countries, generally due to the improvement in the operational performance of nuclear plants and the high expectations of fossil fuel prices.…”

The world seeks, in accordance with sustainable development priorities, to impose methodologies that contribute to maximizing the utilization of natural resources in obtaining energy. In view of the challenges resulting from the increased need for electric power and the high operational costs of obtaining conventional energy; Which requires an increase in the economic expenditures of the state in addition to the environmental pollution resulting from the use of petroleum materials in power generation, and the depletion of oil resources in light of the provision of natural resources that are less expensive and better for the environment and promote economic development at the global and national levels. In view of the continued rise in the global demand for energy, especially in economies that have grown rapidly in industrialization and developing economies, he turned the issue of energy availability and security into an important political issue and a major element for all international conferences and forums of the United Nations, which seek energy sustainability at the lowest costs and the use of clean and human-friendly energies and environment. Egypt faces a similar situation with its reliance on the traditional pattern of electric power generation, especially fossil fuels, as a major source of energy, in addition to the increasing consumption considering the large economic and population growth. This puts great pressure on its fossil fuel resources. In addition, the need for alternative energy is of strategic importance for the long-term prosperity and security of the energy supply.

“…Improvements in living standard have resulted in an increase of fossil fuel consumption, especially in transportation [5,6]. That is why they are currently playing a dominant role despite the ecological effects [4]. Petroleum fuels are still dominant for all kinds of transport (air, marine, and land) because of their relatively high economic efficiency.…”

Historically, petroleum fuels have been the dominant fuel used for land transport. However, the growing need for sustainable national economics has urged us to incorporate more economical and ecological alternative vehicle fuels. The advantages and disadvantages of them complicate the decision-making process and compel us to develop adequate mathematical methods. Alternative fuel (compressed natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and ethanol fuel mixtures), the standard prices and their ratios were investigated. A mathematical model to determine a critical ratio between alternative and conventional fuel prices had already been developed. The results of this were investigated. The results showed that the critical ratio is not a linear function on annual conventional fuel consumption costs. According to our simulation gaseous fuels were economically more attractive. Whereas, the use of bioethanol blends had more risk.
