    Actually Chuck2, there is a simple thing called a transfer switch that I flip when I start my generator, which protects power workers. My guess for a plan b would be a diesel power generator to charge the batteries in the trucks.

    As for your solar array, all that investment and you still need a generator when the power is out Lmao!
    And the reason you will pay for it in ten years is your installation was subsidized by fellow taxpayers and the decarbonization of the electrical grid is increasing the cost of electricity not reducing it!
    I have had a generator long before a solar PV system. So the generator was no additional cost.

    And when I pay for and maintain my own PV system that provides additional surplus electricity to the grid that is trying to reduce carbon emissions, I am also providing benefits.

    And all farmers receive subsidized electricity from the grid in Saskatchewan because they pay a slightly lower rate than residential and city customers and the distribution and grid costs are much higher to widely spread rural farm customers. So who is getting subsidized?

    And the gas and coal generation also receive subsidies and are paid for by customers and taxpayers as well.
