There is no need of large powerplants. Thats the legacy grid, only to make Warren Buffet rich. New grid (that needs to be built) will have solar panels, BESS + EVs for storage, either off-grid or a small community grid. The new grid is distributed and indestructible.

And your gasoline pump works perfectly fine without power? Or the refineries?

I hope its strictly an American fantasy to think you're driving out of anywhere when something like that happens.

Buy a bicycle.

It’s always charged. You plug it in when you get home and it’s ready to go when you leave.

Solar panels and home battery storage. This is also going to seriously screw over electrical grid and especially powerplant operators... residential will, at least in suburban and rural areas, not need a grid any more except during prolonged phases of low solar yield.

What are you afraid of happening?

This is such a perverse and anxious fear imo

You can have solar panels and batteries right at home. You can't have an oil rig at home.

Are u serious? If ur oil refinery is destroyed how are you going to pump oil to your house?
