Just because there is a lot of mass there dosen't mean it is infinite in any way. Where "a lot" is only a handful of stellar masses in many cases.
A handful of solar masses? The central blackhole of the central galaxy of a galactic cluster is estimated to have up to several hundred billion solar masses. It'd take a while to use up that amount of mass/energy.
Those are pretty rare. And nowhere near infinite.
Lots of holes get formed from stellar deaths, with only 3-tens of stellar masses.

If the Big Bang Theory is correct then everything in the universe was created in that instant, albeit in different forms of energy and matter. Therefor, infinite energy is an impossibility because we live in a finite universe.
How so? Infinite density does not mean infinite energy.

Now, if the universe is infinite in extent and as homogenous as it looks from here, then indeed there would be infinite energy in it.
However you only have access to the observable universe, which is a finite volume of space, with a finite amount of stuff in it.
