Yes, that is a problem. With distributed energy, which produce clean water can lead to the support of larger populations. That will lead to education which will lead to population growth control.

Yes, population growth, and the pace of growth, is a problem. But consider this. If all regions of the world had access to unlimited amounts of energy, water could be purified from the ocean. Through available water, food can be grown anywhere in the world almost. This would support that population growth.
Further, with better education around the world, particularly among girls and women, the population growth itself will start to go down. There is much data to support this.
