If your goal is to make your house independent of the grid then you might have more work and expense then you're willing to devote to the idea. The choice is easy for off-grid. Just calculate the cost of gas or diesel needed each day for power.

And the cost of the generating equipment and any necessary maintenance. And if no electrity at all from the grid is used, will a charge still be imposed just to have it available? It might be worth it.
