Interest in living off the grid, i.e. self\-sufficiently without relying on public services such as the municipal water supply, electricity, or local sewage and gas systems, has come on the scene as a greener, cheaper, and more independent way of life. Homes that are off\-grid generally allow for a smaller carbon footprint, and a sense of freedom and self\-sufficiency. Living Off\-Grid sets you free from depending on a company, either using solar panels, wind turbines, a micro water system, or a combination of these technologies. Other times, an Off\-Grid system can work as an energy backup or be complemented by the grid when renewable technologies cannot produce all the energy needed. We have gathered different examples of nature\-powered homes, which are partially or completely off\-grid, to focus on the importance of these homes, which put sustainability first.
