For the home. Solar, wind?
And this supposed power company "buyback" of your excess generated energy. (Insert elves and smurfs frolicking, with fife and flutes playing in the background).
I thought about getting a windmill some years ago to supplement our electric bill. The cost of the windmill was $20,000 with $500 annual maintenance bill. So didn't see an advantage in doing it. We have bought solar panels that are placed at the electric co-op. That has benefited it.
Windmills would't work here, anyway. First good storm would take care of them.
Irma would have toasted most. Never mind a Dorian.
Who does the math on the solar panels? You, or the co-op?
Don't know that I'd trust them.

One of the best ideas I've seen or heard lately is what Mannlicher's son is doing with a small solar panel "farm".
A small plot of prepared land with the solar panels in a grid close to the ground, where high winds won't be such a factor.
