My point is: how expensive would it be to have alternate power generation, especially in cities? I think the grid isn't going anywhere anytime in the next 50 or 100 years at least.
- maxerickson 11y agoSmall generators are not punitively expensive. It's anyway going to be an awful long time before North America stops burning fuel for winter heat. I guess something like $500 a year is not a welcome new bill, but that would be the cost for replacing a house sized generator at a pretty short interval. If the duty cycle is low and maintenance is effective I would expect the cost to be lower than that.
