Micro solar is doable for anyone with yard space though. Forget the grid and buy some battery storage, put all the electronics into a small shed (like a garbage can box or something, an enclosure to keep out rain). Put up panels anywhere you want. Run the inverter output into your house.
Got a friend with a cabin, and instead of a whole grid they found it simpler to plug their secondhand panels into a battery pack about the size of a car battery that has 110v, 12v, and USB outlets. They charge on the panels at home and it lasts the weekend at the cabin.

Ugh I really want to do this but it’s totally outside my skill set
If you have a few grand about, there are company that sell very easy to use kits that are quite handy.
Any recommendations would be appreciated
On YouTube I watch a guy Jay Legere who installed a Bluetti solar and battery system. I think that Anker has a system too.
