2. Great project, but not technically off the grid.

Looks like they will pay into the grid when conditions are good and take from it when they are not. Jury is still out on whether they will break even in that regard.

Also, they are, of course, getting water, sewerage services, etc.

Not to dis it, though. It's a great step in the right direction.
