What is the most efficient way to produce 10kw of electricity per month?
I’ve recently been looking into alternative energy to run my auto shop that consumes an average of 9.2kw per month. Everything will be DIY of course 
. Solar Panels CAN be expensive, wind is not so efficient, and I’ve found schematics for magnetic generators that have a 20/80 input output ratio.
So the real question being: Is there a way to combine 2 or more systems with some form of power storage unit (batteries?), that will pay itself off within a 12 month time frame??
Not looking for a long winded explanation (no pun intended), but more of a push in the right direction to meet my power and $$ needs. I’m not the kinda guy afraid to do research and get my hands dirty. Again, this is DIY so keep in mind my costs to build the systems would be minimal. Thanks
I am a strong advocate of using materials at hand to create what is needed. You can convert any internal combustion engine for use as a steam engine.1 A parabolic dish (2) can be used to boil water and drive the engine.3 One or multiple alternators can be used to provide electricity and some used batteries may have some life as stationary batteries.
Even though such a system may not be as “efficient” as the most efficient system (parabolic dish/stirling engine3) using available materials will make it the cheapest. Such a system may be a bit of work and has the potential to supply heating/air conditioning needs as well as electricity.
