The electric companies either turn the power off and get sued because people die from no warning because tv and cell towers are out or they leave it on to warn people and down lines start fires and they get sued.
Most TV/cell towers have battery backup that lasts for awhile.
HECO could be forced into bankruptcy by the damage from the fires
Hawaiian Electric Company is being sued along with Maui county. And like utilities in other fire areas, the damages could be more than the company is worth.
