Energy is *the* limiting factor at higher levels. There are a few other options, like surging bliss like crazy and just letting the energy deficit grow, but mostly advancement is a matter of growing population & getting more valuable assets, and running a bit behind in energy, and surging bliss when you run a lot behind in energy.

There's a few people with *very* different approaches, but most of us are either surging population or allowing natural growth to happen, and then running to catch up with energy. At higher levels, the natural growth is often more than a full cycle's worth of energy to keep up.

Push to get to level 9 so you can get the thorium reactors, which help a lot.
