Since I work for a cellular radio network planning company, this sort of setup is somewhat familiar to me ;)
There was some discussion a while ago about this on the digest. The search engine might turn up some usefull stuff, although my link to it seems to have stopped working.
I believe the consensus was that there is a form of power grid connecting the temples, emmanating from somewhere in the heart of the empire.
Personaly I'm not all that keen on this idea. I think each temple is the centre of it's own perfectly hemispherical glowline that is created through the rituals and sacrifices at that temple. Disconnecting a temple from the others might make it harder to maintain I suppose, but I think it should still be possible.
