    The wiki says

    True energon is, however, extremely rare: in most universal streams, the Transformers’ long war has left Cybertron drained of all but the smallest fraction of the substance, and although it has been known to exist on a small sampling of other planets throughout the multiverse (usually Earth), its paucity leaves the Transformers usually subsisting on artificially-generated substitutes created from other local energy sources.

    It seems like the best stuff is fossil Energon. It can be synthesized, but it doesn’t say anything about renewable sources. The Autobots and Deceptocons would fight together against Captain Planet.

    (I have much better things to be doing, but this is some quality procrastination)

      In the cartoon there is an episode where the decepticons take over a hydro electric dam, and use it to produce cubes.

        I actually kind of remember that now! Danger at the Dam

        “You destroy everything you touch, Megatron!” “Because everything I touch is food for my hunger, my hunger for power!”

        That doesn’t sound very resource friendly…
