That is NOT a worst-case scenario.Don't you think that its a possibility that in the case of collapse government will regulate the most important commodities like energy and you won't be able to provide your service anymore? I mean thats a worst case scenario
In many countries in the world, energy production, commercialization and usage --yes, usage-- is controlled by governments. If/when a big producer gets to be in trouble and we are short in power, the government will have to step in and control it. I recall back home that energy ration happened when rain was not enough (most power is produced from hydroelectric plants). I recall when I went to California years ago that energy prices vary by the hour of the day. My cousin was told when to do laundry and dry their clothes, or bake a cake.
Another example of this happening, without going to extremes: Venezuela's energy shortage: Losing power | The Economist
...THE economy is in recession but sales of at least two items are booming in Venezuela: water-storage tanks and portable generators. A country that has claimed the world's biggest oil reserves and is home to its fourth-mightiest river, the Orinoco, has recently been forced to ration both water and electricity.
Certainly, lower rainfall has cut the flow to the country's main hydroelectric dam (which provides three-fifths of its electricity) by a tenth.
