| Manager of an Iowa electric coop in a region with many Amish told me it wasn't the religion of avoiding certain technology, it was just being CHEAP. And avoiding paying his power company for electric connections and power.
But running the local diesel generator is not a cost effective way to have electric power, small scale always costs two or three times as much as utility power from 10 to 500 MW power plants including transmission costs and slight inefficiencies.
