I don't know if solar is a good option yet. Battery tech is still relatively unreliable I think, an there's the likelihood of the solar panels blowing off your house. There are other alternatives to gasoline generators, they're just more expensive. My uncle has one hooked up to his natural gas line which can also run on propane in the unlikely event gas service gets cut off (earthquake?) There are also hydrogen fuel cells which are clean and reliable but even more expensive.
