The us has 3 energy grids: east coast, west coast, and texas. As long as don’t live in Texas, you shouldn’t have issues with electricity.

It’s not that simple, there are local grids that can only take so much. California had rolling blackouts as recent as 2020 https://abcn.ws/3er0Y8i

And completely unrelated, but due to the wildfires and the lawsuits against the power companies, they have also started cutting power when the lines are in areas of high wind. https://www.cpuc.ca.gov/psps/
