Some of it is true, I remember reading in Scientific American magazine over 40 years ago where a direct hit from a large solar flare, could wipe out ALL the large high voltage power transformers in the USA energy grid, and also destroy any sensitive electronics that had enough wires to create an antenna.
It would take many years to replace the power transformers alone, so there would be a dark age of sorts for awhile.
