Well for starters it will hopefully undermine the anti-science luddites that oppse the LHC as well as stem cell research, vaccination, and genetically modified crops. Well pretty much all science really.
When this theology-based opposition to science is weakened we might see advances in other areas as well as in particle physics.
By the way energy is a likely side effect of improved knowledge of physics. The benefit of cheaper and/or cleaner power is easy to see.
