It takes huge amount of energy and labour to get something into orbit
This is in fact the only major stumbling block in the way of economical and profitable space exploration and development. The solution to this problem can be found here: http://maglaunch.com/

You can power railguns to launch large quantities of fuel and other supplies into orbit to construct spacecraft for manned interplanetary missions (currently the energy cost is $5k-$10k per kg put into low earth orbit).
Energy costs aren't the hurdle there.
