"Me, I’m good with mass-market"
So you want mass-market off the grid?
You realize thats kind of an oxymoron?
The mass market is by definition only on the grid. Because the grid is predictable and there you can mass produce.
But off the grid allmost always has to be customized. Just alone the getting things there and installing them part.
And like others mentioned, what do you do off grid if your mass produced solar/thermal heating system breaks in the winter?
Order a new one? To be delivered by helicopter?
- Animats 6y agoThere are quite a few tiny complete off-grid houses available as prefabs. Larger ones tend to be custom, but if you want something that will fit on a flatbed truck, that's available prebuilt. Off-grid power, water, and sewerage do require on-site work, and usually more land than the house alone uses.
