Perez is not alone Once the preserve of mavericks, hippies and survivalists, there are now approximately 200,000 off-grid households in the United States of America, a figure that Perez says has been increasing by a third every year for the past decade For all of the people who live off-grid, self-sufficiency means guilt-free energy consumption and peace of mind "It feels brilliant to make use of clean, free energy that is not from fossil fuels," says Suzanne Galant, a writer who lives offgrid in a rural area in Wales "And if something goes wrong, we can fix it ourselves." Now even urbanites are seeing the appeal of generating some if not all of their own power needs So is energy freedom an eco pipe-dream or the ultimate good life? Well, there is only one way to find out: begin to explore the possibilities of solar, wind or hydropower But unless you live on a sunny, south-facing hillside with access to a nearby river or stream, that might prove prohibitively expensive! There is no doubt that being off-grid has its problems, and it is not always the cheapest way to get the energy you need Even so, pioneers like Perez have proved that it can be done, and without giving up a 21- century lifestyle: "I have got five personal computers, two laser scanners, two fridge-freezers, a microwave, a convection oven, vacuum cleaners - you name it," says Perez "There is an external beam antenna on the roof for the phone and a satellite dish for an Internet connection I have got 70 kWh in batteries that could last me five days I have too much electricity." Too much electricity and no more bills That has got to be worth aiming for (Adapted from English Unlimited by Adrian Doff and Ben Goldstein) Question 44: Which best serves as the title for the passage?
