On the Economics of Off-Grid Energy

in off-grid •  4 years ago 

I looked into the price of Grid tied Solar and it was very expensive. Then I priced batteries for offgrid and it was worse. Then I learned that you need to keep the batteries topped up with a gas fuelled generator.... and you pretty much can never go on holidays since you need to always be there to check on battery levels ..... so I just decided to reduce my energy consumption And look into some small solar gadgets to power up my devices.

I hear you, I think it's going to be a pain going off grid!

I see these people going off the grid here in Canada.... buying a large property and then having to chop many trees down to heat their offgrid cabin. It doesn’t make any sense.
