Is gravity endless energy?

You need energy to produce a force that compensates gravity. So if you apply that force for a huge amount of time, will gravity ever be depleted?

Potentially. Gravity goes on forever but gets weaker with distance as it goes out in all directions. So the farther from the gravity source the less energy you need to keep going further, but the less energy it exerts on you as well. Assuming am infinite expanse of just a gravitational body and something with energy to go away from that body, you will always feel gravity on into infinity.
