If you're looking for evidence that non-oil sources will get more profitable, less expensive and widely available in the future, Ramez Naam has a series of excellent blog posts (with lots of cited data) that are a good starting point. The first is from mid-August of 2015, and the last in mid-October, so they are timely as well:

- rubyfan 11y agoGreat analysis. Everything there points to realistic challenges that put a renewable energy led future at least 50 years out (imho). This is great for the future and clean energy technology companies but I'd suspect oil executives to be sizing up their slice of the world energy pie. I'd guess the future looks pretty good for oil for a few more decades.
