Apparently the virus is purely biological and does not infect power
stations.

And no-one who is important with regard to power generation and supply
will be affected?

Few enough of the port staff, gas terminal handlers,
power station staff, National Grid staff, etc., will be
either ill, in isolation, or looking after their immediate
families, to affect our electricity?

Nope its all remote controlled now so they can do it
from their isolation.

Certainly we can hope that is the case, for
many reasons, but I wouldn't assume that
the supply will not be interrupted.

More fool you.
