[QUOTE="Hanr3, post: 284442, member: 1055"] Solar isn't very efficient, yet, however it beats nothing. If you go with a generator, go with propane or natural gas. Both will be cheaper and readily available than gasoline or diesel. I guess the real question is what are oyu trying to compensate for and for how long? End of the world- there wont be any power, or fuel. Buy candles or learn to make them from animal fat. IF you want to keep power for HVAC and refridgeration, can you cost justify them sitting idle for years on end? With solar, you can plug back into the grid and get compensated from your power company. To be honest, I think your best option you didnt mention, wind power. [/QUOTE]
