If you're just looking to offset your utility bill you can a get solar or wind generator without a battery storage system, in which case you'd be SOL when the power goes out. But it would be stupid (and more expensive) to get it without the storage and then have an ICE generator. The problem with ICE generators is they sit so much. So they have an automatic start up cycle where they run for 30 minutes a week. Since they run they have to be serviced (usually twice a year); oil changes, air cleaners, etc. Because they have to go from dead stop to full power in a couple of seconds (when the power goes out). the oil has to be kept near operating temp year around, which is another expense. Given how rare outages are, a battery backup make more sense.
