Here I gotta disagree with you, even with 100% net generation with distributed solar the need to operate the transmission and distribution is minimally impacted, and the need for coincident peak power generation still exists (but moved and reduced) and the need for a billing and customer 'service' entity is unchanged.
in my country SA is approaching 100% daytime energy from renewable (mostly solar) at around 2023
Rooftop solar to cut total grid demand to zero in South Australia but they will still need those powerlines
in my country Tasmania exported too much zero emission energy due to the carbon tax and is now rushing to run on diesel because their dams are too low.
Labor, Greens call for Senate inquiry into energy crisis
the cost of customer 'service' transmission and distribution is high and generally fixed, going 100% net solar does does materially impact those costs.
cutting the line to the grid eliminates those costs.
