He doesn't say energy costs will be zero, he says that marginal electricity costs will go towards zero. It is a very different thing. The base infra structure will always be a big investment. But e.g. solar power plus a very (very) large amount of batteries can lead to very cheap marginal cost.

And he doesn't give an estimated rate of decent. Energy dropping 0.001% over ten years is trending toward zero technically.
I am optimistic though and think in 10 years energy costs will play a much smaller part in total costs.
