There is already hydrothermal power in cold places like Canada and Russia, so the temperature drop would have to happen before we got to the point where we had access to that technology. | |

However on its own lack or limited availability (great cost, etc.) of fossil fuels means agricultural revolution and difficulties of getting all other power sources on industrial scale... I mean lack of fossil fuels would be a strong limiting factor. How strong if strong enough to fulfil the requirements I'm not sure. | |
