I totally suggest getting solar, but it depends on location. There's a break-even for sunny days which I think is around 250 days or something, but not sure. It doesn't rain in CA during the summer generally and that's when a huge chunk of power is generated. You'd have to discuss it with the install company, but solar is supposed to be cheaper now.
I looked into a battery but it was too expensive (my place came with solar), so I had to settle with getting a generator + switch for PSPS events.
PSPS event = Public Safety Power Shutoff
