It's a nice thought, but not more than wishful thinking. The cost is
still too high for effective adoption. The cost of the drug
(electricity) is adjusted so it will be always a bit cheaper than making
your own.
For a long time here, it would have been cheaper in the long run to buy
a natural-gas generator. Of course, now that we bought our first house,
natural gas prices have gone sky-high and taken any advantage away.
