There could be several reasons. Two of the possible reasons are: Cost of making the changes to protect the grid could be very costly. They might not believe that a massive solar flare that knocks the grid out will actually happen, so the improvements are not necessary.

If you look at hiatory, it jas happened before. Look up the Carrington event back in the 1800's. A solor flare happened and FRIED the telegraph cables, and everything else around them. Just imagine if something happened like that today. Plus, the cost would be "pocket change" compared to how much we spend on needless wars!
