The real trick is that as resources become more scarce, and pollution becomes more of a problem (so limiting emissions becomes more expensive) each KW will cost more. All resources will be doing this not just electricity. We will learn to limit consumption without the help of an edict from on high. Economics will (already is) get folks to limit their consumption and do it willingly.
