Silicon Valley Power still relies on some PG&E transmission lines to bring power in that is generated outside Santa Clara. My point is just that PG&E has an influence on most every electricity user in its territory (even those with community or county run local distribution grids).

Did a bit more research on SVP. They have 55 miles of transmission lines. Here's a map: https://cecgis-caenergy.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/califor...

Saying they rely on some PG&E transmission lines is a massive understatement. Also, how cool is it that you can deep link to a map showing a minor utility's transmission lines?
