Blunosr, you don't have to go off grid in order to use alternative power sources. You CAN have your cake and eat it too. There are very few people who are actually off grid. However, I have not forgotten what JDemaris posted here probably five years ago on wind turbines. They are very expensive, they have a finite lifetime, The savings over their lifetimes that they would provide, at the cost of electric power at the time that they were being built, meant that without the federal funding they would not be economically viable, and private money would never be able to build them. So now with electric rates down, they are not capable of returning the money that we taxpayers put into them. We have to develop sources of power to replace fossil fuels, but we can't just throw tax dollars at it. Banks of solar panels on east facing low pitched roofs, covered in snow for months at a time, will never return a homeowners investment. They are a good deal only for the company that puts them up.
