If you live in the Bay Area, you may have a choice who you purchase your power generation from - many Bay Area communities are served by CCAs. If you are not served by a CCA, and admittedly, many communities still are not, it’s worth telling your city leaders you’d like the choice. It used to be a huge lift to get a CCA off the ground. It still is, but with so many more in existence, the road maps are there OR there is an adjacent CCA that your community can join.
With regard to distribution, competing systems simply don’t make economic sense - two sets of wires down the road just doubles a set of fixed costs while halving the customer base, and so doubling the bills for each customer base. Electricity distribution is a natural monopoly for a reason and should be highly regulated as such.
