You will want at least some grid connection. Otherwise, you can't sell your electricity when charging demand is low and can't buy electricity when demand is higher than local production.

Still, a reasonably sized battery and combination with local production will likely be a smart business strategy.

I agree you'd want it, but I'd argue there's a case to be made for skipping it. Go look up the current interconnection queues. You could save yourself a ton of headaches by just skipping that. Enough to account for the lack of sales you're describing? Maybe not. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Plus you'd open up all kinds of land procurement opportunities that would save you a crazy amount as well. Transmission infrastructure is expensive and painful these days. Transformer lead times are measured in years and prices are crazy. If you could skip all that and get the land cheap? Idk man I think it'd pencil
