ELI5: What would happen to the economic system if we discover an energy source that is unlimited, free, easy to use and convert?

I guess there would be a full shift towards automation and decline in every other sector since we have unlimited ~~resources~~ power at our disposal.

There's a number of other scarce resources that will still be scarce should an unlimited free source of energy be adopted. There will still be issues with scarce metals, water, land, human capital, etc. As a whole, the quality of life of pretty much every human would rise. The economic system however, would remain relatively unchanged.
