> It's a fallacy to believe we will require less energy in the long run

It's hard to say without knowing your definition of long run so would you care to explain why you believe that less energy is required in your long run?

I see it as exactly the opposite, in the short/medium term we will use more energy but it will eventually go into reverse.

Maybe Jevons Paradox will intervene and you are correct, I don't know

For the record, my long run is 150+ years, if only to make sure that we are all dead.
