In the next 20 years, the LHC will still be operational and producing an order of magnitude or more data, but there won't be any higher energy accelerator operating successfully. From a computational perspective, it's useful to think of our universe as an information processing system and consider the resources required for computation.

High Energy Particle Colliders
Summary

There will be an order of magnitude more data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the future, but we will not see a higher energy accelerator operating successfully in the next 20 years. It's also difficult to predict the computations required in the future due to the unknown resources needed.
