I am a software architect, I design both software and infrastructure. Your concerns are perfectly valid. I guess the question is which suppliers do we trust.

Tesla can turn off any of their cars remotely. It doesn't stop millions of people buying their cars.
It is all down to a perception thing, we are sold the narrative that US is good and China is bad. Is their really any difference between them at the moment? You could argue America are the bad guys.

The key thing is that they only purchase key infrastructure that they have access to the source. I wouldn't trust US devices any more than Chinese ones.

It is the same solar panels just a larger scale.
They key part of the infrastructure is on Inverters and storage. As long as the software on them is open source then there is nothing that can be done to shut them down.
Just needs firewalled for the net.

I don't believe it cut anything from the bills due to the way pricing works. Electricity is bought from suppliers at a single unit price per GWH. That price is set by the cost of generation by gas, the most expensive way. So someone is making profit, but we are not saving diddly squat.
