Going Off Grid (Split from consumption topic)

[Marc]

Can any one, any where, go off grid?

Is there any sort of permit, license, or wait for it ... "fees", in order to be self sufficient?

No fees. you can cut the cord wherever you like. 

IF you wanted the services dug out of your property/removed, that's another story.

Recently asked my gas provider to see about removing their supply from my house. Went something like the Seinfeld episode where Kramer wants to opt out of mail. I still have a gas line.

That's funny. Unless you physically, disconnect, I imagine you are still charged a supply fee?

No supply fee, though a dude came around and locked the meter out. I guess it's not bad; leaves the option in future.
