They will have to! Either voluntarily or via "Push, pull or drag". It isn't all that different from the need of cities in the past to expand their bridges and highway infrastructure vs the incresing utilization of the automobile. Traffic jams were either prevented by innovative foresight or were ameliorated as a result of the need to aleviate existing nonfunctional transportation bottlenecks. Either way, the expansion of previous low capacity travel routes was attended to and the result was that more and better routes were built to accommodate the situation. It will be the same with the power grids, both regional and local grids. The expansion will occur in order to allow for viable function,i.e. in response to public demand. Change is inevitable.
