er, not ethanol, that other thing that makes engines go 😅

That doesn't counter my other point about refrigeration and heat as a bonus from your local generation if you can make enough.

Diesel, propane, and many wood heat sources require electric. The point is that the electric is more flexible than a room full of oil barrels for your truck. I can decide how I use it day by day as I go. Might be food storage one day and a welder the next.
