Fuel

Fuel was a term for any substance used by technology in order to provide energy for said technology.

Most propulsion systems, such as warp drive and even the internal combustion engine, made use of fuel. (VOY: "The 37's")

In 2266, the USS Enterprise was low on fuel as she headed to Rigel XII. There was barely enough fuel for achieving orbit around the planet. (TOS: "Mudd's Women")

In 2369 the starboard antimatter pod of the runabout used by Picard, Deanna Troi, Data, and Geordi La Forge lost its fuel when the runabout collided with a temporal fragment. (TNG: "Timescape")

Starfleet used ramscoops for collecting stellar gases and convert them into fuel, while the Tosk used arva nodes for this. (DS9: "Captive Pursuit")

In the revised final draft script of TOS: "Balance of Terror", an on-screen reference to the "fuel supply" of a Romulan Bird-of-Prey was instead a reference to the ship's "energy".
