You probably can't get anything that properly powers your house because that would need to connect to the grid, but there are small solar arrays you can get for stuff like camping or boats which could probably power some devices. Might have to be via a battery as I suspect the output is variable.

You don't want to install anything permanent since you'll have to remove them when you move out. You can get portable solar panels + those big Anker portable batteries that can run full sized appliances. But a more meaningful way to help the environmenf is to do composting. Up to 80% of the weight of your household waste is compostable material. Simply composting them drastically reduces the amount of waste from your house to the landfill. Plus no more smelly watery garbage bags and now you can plant veges.

Am a renter. Recently got two solar panels installed, maxing out at about 600 watts. It's called a balcony power plant and you essentially just plug it into an ordinary outlet.

Depending on where you live, yes. We have a setup of 4 panels placed in the backyard connected to an inverter and some batteries. It's technically temporary so legal where we are, basically a large solar charged battery bank.

Check with your power company if they offer options for electricity from renewable sources

You can choose utility companies that use renewables or plans within. My electric company has a 'renewables first' type policy where you only get non renewable power if there's a surge of use.

The problem is you have no safe way to connect them without building a totally separate electrical system, since they have to be separated from your grid connection. Let me suggest an alternative "alternative energy": LiFePo battery packs/banks are available in a wide variety of sizes, they require no outdoor connections and don't have to be interconnected with each other as they can operate independently and standalone. What you can do is charge them from the grid at low-power-usage times (typically overnight, when the wind farms are spinning, dams are flowing, and nuclear is nuclearing with nobody to use it). Then unplug them during the day and run stuff in your house off battery power, potentially all day long if they're big enough. Technically this is only energy storage, not energy production, but it's an important part of the alternative energy landscape, as energy is very hard to store and renewables like wind and solar depend on the grid's ability to do so, which you will be helping it to do.

They are sometimes sold as battery "generators" for RV/camping as the modestly sized ones can fill a portable role similar to small gasoline generators. Many of them include charging ports for solar too, so you can add solar modules on as well if you want to go that direction, to further increase runtime during the day and provide backup power if you ever need it. They get big and expensive really quickly though, so you can either get lots of small independent ones or a few big ones, but either way you're going to be spending many thousands of dollars.

If we ever end up replacing the supermajority of our power generation with solar, we would need the extra storage at night instead of during the day, but that's likely a long way off and requires a LOT of other load shifting like EVs charging overnight, electric heating at night, etc.

Something like Arcadia might be available in your area

Extension cord from the neighbors house... ;)

There are definitely portable solar panels and battery banks, I use them for hiking. No reason you couldn't at least use them to charge and power various household devices. A wind generator probably also exists but I haven't looked into those because they are not very packable. I have no brand recommendations: Mine are all shitty no-name brands, but they work enough to get me an OKish charge, just don't count on the panels being up to spec if you're cheaping out.

You can also look into solar water heaters: They can be as simple as a bladder you leave out in the sun or as sophisticated as a dedicated solar waterheater but obviously you wouldn't be able to hook it into the actual plumbing of the house (no reason you couldn't just use a portable container to hold it or even a camping shower.

You could build a solar heater to help with heating in the winter.
