Generator
 

Our goals are to be completly off the grid and to use all renewable energy.   The generator exists as a backup to these systems.  If we have to use it then we have not achieved our goal.  To say it a bit more frankly and to hold myself and others accountable we have failed if we have to resort to using fossil fuels to operate this building.
