The problems I see with wind and solar electric isn't the start up as much as it is the long term costs. Yeah, it's expensive to start, especially the batteries. You can direct meter back to the grid, but they pay you what it costs THEM to produce the power and they don't give you anything on the delivery cost.

If you have a storage system, well, batteries are real expensive and sooner of later EPA or someone is going to notice all that Haz Mat sitting there. So I'm a little ambivalent about the whole deal. I admit, I'd like a wind mill just to have it though.
