When you start to grow it. The real cost of a sustainable energy source is taken into account. If we continue to look for cheap, free crude oil which costs only the exploration and development cost plus profit. This is not sustainable. It does not reflect the real cost of the resource. Cost will check demand just like the Fed use interest rates to spur or stop economic growth. This non-renewable resource has no cost, its price less.
