Honestly I think the grid will change over coming years. The cities will remain similar but rural towns and remote homes will be switched to local power or limited connectivity. It’s too expensive to maintain a modern grid. Connecting power used to be closely related to phone, but this is less the case with cell and satellite service. Also building utilities can be amortized in a way that assumes the entire population in a region are captured customers. But as individual homes start generating power instead of consuming it, those methods of paying for the grid no longer make sense.
