Possible scenario
Microgrids Fast-Tracked
45% Chance
The most likely outcome is that the Pentagon turns Hegseth's order into a rapid procurement program for microgrids, backup generation, battery storage, and hardened controls at major installations. This fits the recent history of grid attacks, PJM reliability warnings, and military concern that civilian power systems cannot be assumed reliable during crises.
