An absolute and complete understanding at a fundamental level has not yet been achieved. However, for the average person, without delving deeply into the science, it is primarily a medium of exchange between producer and consumer. It’s like money: when you spend it, you expect to receive a service or a product in return.
Understanding this, we can curb and even lower the cost of electricity services by creating competitive solutions. One way to do this is by building autonomous homes equipped with:

• Solar panels and batteries for energy storage.
• Wind turbines for additional electricity generation.
• Mechanical heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling.
• Solar thermal collectors with a high efficiency (over 80%) for hot water supply and heating support. If you have an electric kitchen stove, I recommend considering purchasing and installing a gas one.

All these steps will allow you to comfortably weather any power outages and transform your house into your own personal fortress.
