Abstract: The possibility of using alternative energy sources for an average owner of a residential house in Krasnodar Krai is considered. Calculations of efficiency for installation of a solar generator or wind generator are made and their payback period is determined. In conditions of solar insolation of Krasnodar region solar panels produce on average 1 kWh per installed kW of capacity. The efficiency of wind generators depends on certain conditions: a 1 kW wind turbine under conditions of average annual wind speed can produce 2-4 kWh per day. The cost of operating solar panels is lower than the cost of 1 kWh for consumers with gas cookers around the edge by 55% and for wind generators by 48%. Based on the analysis of solar insolation and productivity for Krasnodar Krai, solar panels can be more efficient than wind turbines.
