Correct, because the east and west grids are not synchronized you can’t really transfer power between them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_power_transmiss...

> The Eastern Interconnection and the Western Interconnection are the largest. Three other regions include the Texas Interconnection, the Quebec Interconnection, and the Alaska Interconnection. Each region delivers power at a nominal 60 Hz frequency. The regions are not usually directly connected or synchronized to each other, but there are some HVDC Interconnectors.
