The right thing to do, except if sitting at the end of a branch line in
a rural area, is to pick an electricity company that provides better
service. I cannot say when exactly we've had the last blackout in
Germany in my area, I recall three blackouts in the past three years,
lasting under 45 mins each, one was around a minute or two.

If there is none to offer such, ask your member of parliament for help.

OTOH we're paying like 0.17 € per kWh which is on the expensive side but
hopes are a regulation authority may fix this later this year or next
year - oligopolies aren't fostering competition.
