For hundreds of millions people out there this is everyday life (see below). I guess they would survive. The rest of humanity? Chaos and death. The. End.

Globally, the number of people without access to electricity declined from 1.2 billion in 2010 to 759 million in 2019.

However, under current and planned policies and further affected by the COVID-19 crisis, an estimated 660 million people would still lack access in 2030, most of them in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Any hopes of humanity becoming a Type 1 Civilization would be gone. Hell, as is still a long shot.
