I am considering building a new house like the old “gasometers”, using the height-weight of the house as potential energy. Alternative energy generation can be direct geared to raising the house mass, obviating the need for generators.

One of the advantages to removing generators is there is no peak “electical power in” for a wind turbines, and so even in very strong winds, where the generator is in danger of burning out, power is still delivered.

Of course, off peak power can also be used to raise the house.
