We have loved our experience in making off-grid living a reality, and through our
blogs, we share tips and experiences that will help you along this path. Living offgrid comes with its challenges, but with proper planning and design, those
challenges are little more than obstacles, far less disruptive than a dependency on
rising electrical costs and failing infrastructure. You are no longer vulnerable to
power outages due to brownouts, rolling blackouts, or downed power lines. Your
system is your power plant, and your power plant is in your backyard.
