It's one thing if a city already has one. But what advantage does the city bring to creating and operating power facilities? That requires many specialists with years of experience, in addition to great leadership. Without that, I assume the government is just a wallet to be taken advantage of. It's similar to public transportation. Most cities don't design a system, they order it from a catalog - and they pay private consultants (similar to Oracle consultants) to tell them what to do. There is so much corruption and privatization there, but unlike power there is no business case that would make it attractive outside of public funding.
