Off grid for 20K

Client building a new house quoted 20Kplus vat for DNO supply. Do you reckon you could go off grid for that?

    I lived off grid many years ago, and it was nothing short of a pain in the backside, always having to check the batteries, using gas powered fridges, having to turn on a generator to use the washing machine, and we didn’t have half as much in the house as people have today. Recently my family in Wales have been connected to the grid after their failed attempt at trying to live off grid, unfortunately they didn’t carry out the proper checks and maintenance of their system and it cost them dearly, they got through two sets of batteries, two generators and two wind turbines, two is definitely an unlucky number for them.
