I think you make a good case for making energy production a public utility. Private ownership of essential services is ethically bankrupt.
The fact that a company can fail and leave people without core services, is disgusting in my opinion.
Even more disgusting is that they almost always seek public funds to bail them out.
This is why the government requires you to have long term finances that can be used to prevent a disaster long term due to financial issues.
