Resistive heating for homes in cold climates becomes economical, so many can more easily move off of natural gas / propane in northern climates.
Battery advancements and supply logistics become the only holdup to clean transportation (right now, there isn't sufficient renewable generation or storage to completely replace fossil electricity).
Atmospheric CO2 scrubbing becomes more economical, so waste heat is not an issue I suspect.
Completely moving off of fossil fuels makes petroleum extraction much more expensive, as the primary products are not used as much, so anything currently relying on petroleum (plastics, makeup, asphalt, etc etc) becomes more expensive until renewable synthetic production becomes mainstream.
