Why? Even if you disregard my opinions about egalitarianism, energy per person isn't the fundamental problem, living space is. Even if there was some magical source that'd provide unlimited cheap & emissions-free energy, you'd still need so much land per person for houses & infrastructure, so much more for the farmlands & factories. So taking for instance Haiti, there are about 850 people for every square mile. That doesn't leave a heck of a lot of room for anything else, and is far too crowded for anyone to live a decent life.
