Of course they do, You can run a car on tap water It has been done by many inventors using slightly different methods, the basic principle is that the water is split into hydrogen and oxygen using an electric pulse , then burnt in a normal combustion engine which only emissions are steam and oxygen. but the oil company's buy the patents off the inventor and make sure they is never put into production.

I think its quite the opposite because at the current rate, fossil fuel companies are canibilizing their product and fossil fuels will be gone extremely soon especially w/ the the boom of Chinese car owners (in China).
There is no such thing as "free energy" because even if there were a supply of energy infinitetismally available, there would need to be a way to harnest it, refine it, and make it available to the public, just like what the oil industries do now.

They purchase patents of emerging technologies and then do not develop them while they wait for oil to become unprofitable. Although this energy isn't free, it would be a competitive alternative to oil.
Remember, the oil companies' main objective is to maximize the wealth of their shareholders. If these new technologies were to be developed, their shareholders would lose out on billions upon billions of dollars of potential profit from lost oil revenue.

Why might desire to they conceal them while the oil companys purchase up the patents of all the fairly solid ideas. a guy builds an engine that runs on water and enormous oil pays him 3 million to close up approximately it. won't be able to blame the guy, yet with any luck with the increasing fees of capability sparking thousands and thousands of recent ideas all over the area and the internet to unfold the notice this might end. ... "there is adequate capability in a bathtub tub to run ny for 2 years, we do exactly no longer understand a thank you to apply it with out blowing ourselves up." ... "adequate photograph voltaic capability hits the earth in 2 hours to ability mankind for a 300 and sixty 5 days"

of course they do , so do governments , car manufacturers , etc etc , if you could make a car run on fresh air ;-
oil companies would go bankrupt.
governments would lose billions in tax.
car makers would lose a fortune in replacements parts.
if you invent free energy you would make more money offering to destroy the secret for a price than you would trying to sell it .

There's probably no free lunches and there is certainly not any free energy.
