My sister lives in val de vie and she and her husband have a 1k gallon diesel generator along with a manmade pond that is fed by a nearby river.
When they built the house there wasnt the power outages like today, but their reasoning was the droughts.
They have 100 olive trees, 8k feet of roses and a vineyard. They wanted a guarantee they could keep them watered.
When power goes out, it takes about 1 second for the power to come back on via generator, but can you imagine the bill when it is time to fill that generator back up with diesel.
Damn

They do not lose power. When power goes out, it takes about 1 second for the power to come back on via generator, but can you imagine the bill when it is time to fill that generator back up with diesel.
