Power grids go down daily in most of the world, even here in the western hemisphere.

People get by just fine by shifting their consumption away from electricity (propane for cooking & heating) and off-line water storage (cistern underneath the house, water from there pumped to a rooftop storage tank for gravity flow when the power's off)

Businesses use diesel or propane generators when the power's off (often)

Expensive compared to a centralized grid, but they make do.
