Price of solar dropped 89% in ten years
Solar now being the cheapest energy source made its rounds on Lemmy some weeks ago, if I remember correctly. I just found this graphic and felt it was worth sharing independently.

Price of onshore wind is about as low as solar.
I'd like to add wind to my solar eventually. Multi-modal makes a lot of sense to me. Pretty sure my solar installers don't do that and I have no idea who does do that...if anyone. I'll investigate someday.
There is no home wind power industry because unlike solar, wind power is only cheap when you go big.
To be fair home solar is also not $89 for a Mwh. Least not here.
Oh man, If I was inclined to dox myself online I'd have a guy for you. A local construction company here has a green energy side company and they do both public and private installations of wind and solar, from large owners of open land, to farmers, to even residential. Hopefully theres something near you like that.
Unfortunate that DMs don't work very well here in the fediverse.
