Biogas plant.
About 1 km from our little village (27 houses) there is a biogas plant run by a neighbor. 4 years ago he offered to donate the lost heat, if we install the pumps and the distribution system.
25 of us invested a total of 600,000 Euro (~800,000 $) for putting the pipes in the ground (4 feet deep). After this initial investment we are enjoying free heat.
Before that, I was burning oil. 2,000 gallons per year. I was searching for a way to get away from oil. To me it seemed to valuable to just burn it for heat. I needed it to drive!
Then two years ago came Tesla - the roadster.
Now you know the rest of the story.
