There's plenty of hydro energy available. Not having fossil fuels would've shifted where we settle. Texas would likely be less economically successful compared to Canada which has plenty of hydro capacity and hydro reserves. Long-distance electricity transportation would've come up later making ACs less popular. In the US, that would've favoured the north heavily over the south. In Asia, Singapore would've never been as successful (they say themselves that success came with the AC). Maybe China would've become dominant much earlier.
