If you go with both solar and geothermal in MI, you can pretty much leave the grid.
I suppose in that case, you could install electric heating and appliances, and then you'd really be onto something. Right now, my combined energy bill is about $200/mo in the winter and summer, and about half that in the spring and fall. Are solar and geo typically amortized over the life of the mortgage? If so, I could definitely see it being at least price neutral.
