Inflation push prices up and those will not retrace from there. In addition to this the transition to alternative energy will have a bigger cost in the beginning of the adoption which will also translate into higher prices as well. A shadowy future for now, but after we scale up I think things will get better. A big bump in the road.
Yes i think you are correct on this as the costs are being added now and will hopefully stabilize, but they will never come back down.
