Its why I’m a big fan of more smaller power plants with a grid easily broken down into small pieces.

Much easier for local folks to rebuild and restore in the event of a serious flare induced takedown.

Unforunately, the lack of centralization could mean higher electrical prices, due to a lack of economy of scale. As long as we’re having half our paychecks taken away from us by government, they might as well make themselves useful and harden the existing grid.

Ahhh, but so much harder for the Politburo to control, no?
