You sir win the internet today! That is exactly correct. Electric power can be instantly turned off. Texas was the most recent test of this concept. The commies have forced Texas to close coal power plants and install wind and solar which is nothing but a lie. Wind and solar is a fraud, pure and simple but it makes electricity scarce and expensive and that's the goal. Once everything is electric the commies can shut everybody down with the flip of a switch. If you live in North Texas you got a very clear demonstration just recently.
Interesting that last month’s electric bill contained an offer to permit me to pat more money and buy carbon credits based on my usage.

Notice the three prime energy sources used to produce electricity.
Nuclear - no growth and continued efforts to close existing facilities.
Coal - ongoing efforts to close both raw material sources and generating plants.
Natural gas - Dems stopping pipelines, stopped licenses for fracking on Federal lands, etc.
And the additional 6.6% of hydro is also under attack.
61% electrical energy sources are slowly being impeded or target for closure.
It's worth noting that aside from public utilities, industries generating more than a mega-watt of electric power do so from there own generating plants. They will take a huge hit from current administration energy policies further cutting into foreign sales.
Progressive policies, an oxymoron of the highest order, will impede, if not cripple, our ability to produce the additional large scale generators, transformers, etc to handle increased electrical demands.
Heavy construction equipment and heavy agricultural machinery (a big export market) are not likely to be amenable to large scale electrification. Not likely to ever see a Terex truck run off batteries.
The coup de grace would be a foreign power attacking our vulnerable power grid after electric vehicles achieve a significant percentage of market share. The government embeds that cannot be fired virtually guarantee that will come to pass.
