Choosing the right and efficient form of energy for the drive system in the industry is not an easy task. Its selection depends on various factors. Table below gives a comparison of different forms of energy medium based on some essential criteria, as mentioned.
| Criteria / Power system | Electrical | Hydraulics | Pneumatics |
| Energy production | Hydro, thermal, atomic | Pump | Compressor |
| Availability of energy transmission medium | Available everywhere | Obtaining and disposing of oil is expensive | Air is freely available |
| Maximum distance for energy transmission | Considerable distance, even beyond 1000 km | Up to 100 m | Up to 1000 m |
| Cost of energy | Smallest | High | Highest |
| Speed control | Limited | Good for slow speed precise control | Best for high-speed operation, obtaining uniform speed difficult |
