Trying to achieve an offgrid system when you don't actually need it (i.e. have grid access) is expensive and there are better ways to spend money. But of course it's always great to focus on increasing self-consumption.
For individual it's very hard because those energy sources are very unpredictable, grid have a better tools (and scale) can do that.
But hey, we want to decentralize everything so maybe neighborhoods will be able to do that in future :-)

Exactly. We have much reduced our grid consumption (if you exclude the off-peak car charging). Being totally off-grid would bring different problems.
