Peak Oil? Banging that drum again? This must be at least the 7th major iteration of it.
For all that expense with fracking it still beats the snot out of solar and wind. Until we get over the hysteria around nuclear fossil fuels are going nowhere.
A real game changer could be a discovery in electrical energy storage. Even out the peaks from solar/wind. Solid chemical batteries aren't doing it - there's some cool stuff going on with liquid electrolyte batteries in Australia but I don't think the capacities or efficiencies of them can still beat out fossil fuels.
