Solar power satellites that beam down energy via microwaves anywhere in the world solves this but like most energy alternatives it undermines the energy monopolies.

It’s expensive and nontrivial to do, though. In a far enough future we might have more of it (I did a deep dive on this for sci fi purposes).
There are multiple countries in the world; there are no global energy monopolies. Any sufficiently capitalized company can work on this and undercut others. China in particular is a very pragmatic jurisdiction when it comes to energy and their answer is usually “all of the above, at scale, and cheaply”. So if a company invents something cheap like that, China would be a massive customer. So would many others.
It’s much more affordable today thanks to private companies like SpaceX. I read before that the costs wouldn’t be too dissimilar to a large nuclear plant. Doesn’t OPEC control oil supply? And what about the pipeline politics? There must be some sort of energy cartel?
OPEC controls a minority of oil, but a sizable chunk, which collectively helps them keep the price higher than it otherwise would be if they didn’t coordinate.
In other words, OPEC theoretically incentivizes non-oil energy sources by increasing the cost of oil. It doesn’t hinder other energy sources.
