Someone much smarter than me can weigh in, but wouldn’t that be preferable in a place that could regularly see massive storms?
This way the whole state doesn’t lose power because a hurricane obliterated part of the state?
And I’m sure those grids must sell power between themselves when necessary.
That's not how grids work. Hurricane doesn't look at administrative borders.
