Round here it's all government run. The city runs power, water, sewer, phone, internet, trash/recycle/compost.
We've got the second fastest internet in the country (and it's free for low income people), our power gets an American Public Power Diamond rating for reliability, we're (mostly) on track for being 100% renewable power by 2030, the city captures and liquifies the methane from the sewage treatment process and uses it to run the garbage trucks (that say "Powered by You" on them) and our rates for all of that are cheaper than commercial providers.
Amazingly we still run into people who live here, know all that and still believe that the government is incapable of running anything well... it's kind of startling.
Still, that makes a bit more sense for why you have a generator and that then pretty much requires you have a UPS - so i get it.
