Home Power DIY

and is this storage of electrical energy harmful to us in a similar way as power generated through normal measures (such as oil and coal plants – known to cause tumors and birth defects) under high tension cables/power lines? If there is a storage plant for wind energy, what's the distance from a house that's considered safe? I'd love to install a wind turbine, so i figured to ask before installation.

My husband and I are planning on building a second home on a very long-term basis. This home will most likely be where we’ll retire to. We’ll have to do this in stages for financial reasons. We’re planning on buying a large piece of rural property, and having a well-planned, mostly-to-fully off-grid home designed that is simple but beautiful and not too large (between 1800sf – 2400sf). We’d love to do a prefab, but, depending on the nature of the land, it might have to be a custom design. I just have no clue as to what architectural fees could be. Thanks for any feedback on this.
