    The reason you can’t go off-grid in suburbia is because you need to own a generator to work as a backup in case your off-grid system goes off-line.

    The problem is that you can’t have a generator within a specified distance from a permanent dwelling, which is conveniently more than the size of a typical suburban block.

    This is despite modern generators being practically silent.
