Using Generator As Backup For House Power
Greg:
With a proper setup, which is very costly to boot, you can have an alternative
energy system feeding back into the grid.(yes getting paid for it) If the grid
were to lose power, you would be immediately disconnected from the system, thus
having the power for yourself. There are many types of systems, solar, wind,
hydro and a mixture of them all.
The biggest thing though, is it financially viable to have a system. And does
the electric company buy into those programs everywhere. In BC now, BC Hydro is
not going to construct any new facilities, it will all come through the
Independent Power Producers, which we are one of, producing 960,000,000watts, or
960 MW per hour. About 1/2 hour up the road from us, a group of fellows are
putting a proposal together to build a 5MW plant, and what I understand it is a
viable proposition.
