Reply to comment by EscapeRich9091 in eli5: how long would power stay on if the power company abandoned their post? by larsattacks94

This is assuming that the demand for power will remain the same. If the scenario of a post apocalyptic city is considered maybe and just maybe the load balancing against renewables scenarios is not that bad.

That's correct, since OPs question was just if the power companies abandoned their post, not if 99% of all people died or whatever.
