How much of a concern is this? A solar storm causing power outage bc of a cme. I heard it may happen in the next decade including in 2025. The video details more and this is a problem concerning everyone.

It's definitely a concern, but how much is an open question. This suggests a 2% chance of a major communications disrupting event during the next cycle:
