“It seems to me the single family dwelling, or at least single location power generation is much more feasible. Even if you just cut your publicly supplied energy consumption in half, you’ve accomplished quite a bit.”

Unless you are in a totally off-the-grid location, all you created was extra wasted energy. If you can plug into the grid and the power is there, whatever you produce is redundant energy. You can use it, but an equal amount of energy is wasted because you didn’t use that.

Doesn’t that allow the large providers to scale back their operations? One of the problems we have on the West Coast is that they don’t want to build any more infrastructure. We skim by each summer with barely enough electrical power to avoid brown-outs or even black-outs.

This should ease that pressure somewhat. What’s your take on that?
