    Couldn't have put it better myself!

    Sorry this is a total tangent but I think this is simply because the market will always kick in and react when fossil fuel prices go high. Consumers will start to reduce consumption, invest in efficiency, innovations in efficiency will happen, people will turn to other technologies.

    On the supply side, companies will start going after more expensive sources, which is what we're seeing with shale gas in the US, for example. US EIA expect gas prices to rise considerably over the next 2 years in the US as current gas prices are below production cost for many.

    And finally, we've had a global economic recession which took our foot of the accelerator for a few years, delaying pretty much every trend predicted.
