CA Wildfires

To those living in CA, I am curious what the perspective is. Now that CA has sued PG&E into bankruptcy and is going to force them into a worsening financial situation which will probably accelerate their complete demise even more rapidly, what is the end game? Was the lawsuit a good thing? Bad thing?

The power outages seem necessary (or not) due to wildfires being ignited due to high winds. Going underground for all of PG&E's territory is not going to happen due to expense. Solar and wind aren't going to drastically help any time soon. PG&E is a publicly funded utility, there is going to be no money for anything that has to do with improving infrastructure.

What is the states plan? Is there one? It seems to me that this is that rock and a hard place.
