First, how will the world be be gone, it’s tougher to destroy this planet than you think.
Maybe all of humanity will be gone, about it though.
People will have to switch to solar power though. It is the only source of energy that is “always” there that we don’t have to worry about producing any emissions what so ever.
I believe everything will be a mix of solar, wind, water, and hydrogen. When will this happen though, who knows.

The world as we know it is gonna end soon, so you don’t need to worry about alternative fuel sources, just worry about the end of the world because of wars and the coming economic crash.

What about people who don’t live in sunny climates?

Definitely. Solar power is about to become MUCH more efficient and affordable. If you have any oil stocks, now would be the time to get rid of them.

Solar power is no good at night.
Solar power is, at the present time, 10X the cost of “grid” power.
Solar power changes the albedo of the Earth.
It is not a cure-all

From 1984 to 1993, I lived in a mobile home that I converted as much as I could to run on photovoltaics. I set up 3 2amp panels. There were several problems I encountered. Whenever it snowed, I had to climb on the roof to clear away the snow. I chose direct 12vdc to power things. I had a little difficulty in finding 12vdc appliances and lights, etc. But I did find many at the local RV dealer. The biggest problem was storage batteries. I used deep-cycle lead acid batteries conveniently hid out of sight, but they were not enough. Starting in November of each year, I found it necessary to add a charge from a battery charger (GASP!). So, from this experience I concluded two things about solar. 1) Storage is the continuing bugaboo. 2) The average person must cut down on his usage of energy, don’t be so excessive about things.
Bottom line is that solar would work fine but only with refinements in our daily lives.

The majority of residential solar installs today are grid-tied, that is, they have no batteries, and require no special voltage applicances. This is the kind of system that we installed a couple years ago, and it provides substantially all of the kilowatt-hours for our modest usage.
Considering the present price of electricity where we live in Northern California, the solar is about break-even. It’s not saving us a lot of money, but it’s maybe 10% more expensive at most than grid power. It’s certainly not twice the price of grid power.
This being the case, I think solar is going to make sense for a lot more people in the next two years, as costs come down.
Looking to the future, possibly beyond my lifetime, when fossil fuels become scarce, it’s going to be a lot more expensive to live in areas that don’t get much sun.
