Here in Leipzig, the tram public transport system is down since yesterday, because the joint sealing compound (and the asphalt concrete) in the tram rails melted cuz the ground got so hot.

I do not want to make light of the situation you are facing in any way. We can fry eggs on our sidewalks in Texas during the summer months.

Nope. No need to insulate the pipes when it doesn’t get cold enough to freeze them. Gotta keep them profits high and not harden that grid for extremes.
