What is recommended by anti-oil folk or any green rebel, we fancy (9,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

renewable energy

'what is recommended by anti-oil folk' is the definition.
(renewable energy is an alternative to oil)

'any green rebel we fancy' is the wordplay.
'fancy' is an anagram indicator.
'any'+'green'+'rebel'+'we'='anygreenrebelwe'
'anygreenrebelwe' with letters rearranged gives 'RENEWABLE ENERGY'.

'or' acts as a link.

(Another definition for renewable energy that I've seen is " E.g. water supply".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
