The dust builds up on the lines and then when it rains - 'Houston we have a problem' --------- so out come the helicopters with the pressure cleaners I imagine in a volcanic eruption with a lot of dust - they would be at high risk as well one day, magic might happen and we'll find a way to put them underground of have a totally different way of moving power from one place to another --------- without wires

have a totally different way of moving power from one place to another We could cut out the transmission and distribution lines completely. Everyone gets a micro fusion reactor in a cupboard in the house refuelled periodically.
