For all three of those, it's extremely rare for anyone to shop around. More often, people skip a medical procedure, schooling, or have their utilities shut off rather than just find a better deal.
Not unless they're connected to a battery system. When the solar panel controller detects that the power line from the utility isn't able to send power to the house, the solar panel has to stop running or else it's going to feed electricity back into an inactive grid. They have this safety feature built in so that lineworkers don't get electrocuted when working on downed power lines.
So you would need basically one of those $7,000 power wall things for your panels to do anything during a power outage. I guess you would also need to go up there periodically to brush off the snow.

These people are obsessed with paying lower taxes but apparently perfectly okay with higher bills. It makes no damn sense.
