So how does that help you when your power cables get torn down? The infrastructure there was standing from atleast yugoslav times, and for 50 years, there were no issues, untile one icy-rainfal, all the cables got torn down. I mean.. you can also somewhat predict earthquakes, but you still don't build infrastructure that will withstand the "strongest ones", especially not in areas where earthquakes are rare.

In case of slovenia in 2014, something happened, that has 'never' happened before (atleast not in living memory), and this: https://www.postojna.si/Datoteke/Slike/Novice/123958/l_12395... was the affect on power infrastructure. People who could heat their houses with eg. wood or gas, stayed warm, the ones who only had electricity-powered devices (for heat, cooking,..) were screwed, and had to get help from others. If you forbid alternatives, you're cold, and all your neighbors are cold too, and rebuilding after such destruction is not a few-days thing.

Well, the problem with modern society is that we can't allow anyone to use anything just because there might be a need to. We don't allow people to burn their trash even though trash haulers can go on strike, and we don't allow people to hunt for their food even though the roads can close and grocery stores close. One event that led to a major problem means that we should fix the infrastructure that broke and weather it so that it doesn't break as easily.

I don't know about the specific green fuel bans you are talking about, but I do know that this issue is often used by politicians and companies to throw the blame on something else when it is their fault.
