This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Absolutely 100% Right now having solar panels on your house is 'branded' as some sort of green save the planet thing.
Putting enough panels that your house can go totally off-grid with a little cutback and usage, that's as independent as you get. Save money too.
Yeah but throw some batteries on that solar, which you really should do anyway, and you're good to go. IMHO the batteries are what really makes self-sufficiency possible. With a good size solar array and a good size battery, you can be not only a net exporter but more or less an always exporter, rarely if ever taking power from the grid.
Run on sunshine during the day and stored sunshine at night. Unfortunately a lot of places it's not legal to have a house with no grid connection, even if one isn't necessary.
Energy independence is one of my favorite reasons for it. Getting actually invest and own my power generation vs being stuck in a subscription with a corporation who is subject to geopolitical movements on where, how and when they can buy their fuel.
Crazy to see right winger, pepper types sometimes (not all of them) get sucked into being a liberal thing lol. Like is it a liberal thing to want to own my house or car too? What a weird thing to think
