You have to have a real interest in photovoltaics right now to make
this work. It is very expensive up front, and most folks cannot
justify the expense on simply economics. Granted, there are
exceptions where this is an economic alternative to being "on the
grid," but for most folks getting power from the electric company is
still the way to go, high energy prices notwithstanding.

How about part PV, part wind power?

For instance. When it's sunny, it's rarely very windy. You get wind in poor
weather.............all night too
