Electric vehicles are available that can do that surely ?

Just need a wind turbine to charge it then you wont be paying any money to the fuckers in government to run it !

They'd soon start taxing wind turbines once people cotton on. The fuckers will get you at every corner.

When you get a wind turbine, are you actually allowed to use the electric yourself ?

I'm sure I read somewhere that you must sell it back to the government, and that you arent directly allowed to use it yourself ?

Although Ive worked in buildings where they have had diesel generators and they were selling back to the grid. No idea how that worked given fuel prices ! The generator was mostly a backup too, as the building had mains electric.

I worked in a company that had 4 HUGE diesel generators. For insurance purposes they had to log run time on the generators and so as to not waste the fuel they would get credited for pumping juice back to the grid. This was for like 40 or 50 floor tower in center city, philadelphia.
