Maintenace and repairs can be managed through the utility companies, which already do so for many pieces of hardware on their customers’ properties just fine. The government might also offer property owners a higher payment if they accept certain responsibilities.

Maybe it’s different in the US, but where I live the utility company only services the main fuse that supplies the property. Everything else is done by electricians pair for by the owner.

Where I live in New Jersey, the utility company not only owns and services the meters, it also leases, sells, and services various home appliances, like furnaces and water heaters.
