Passive solar combined with photovoltaic can be very efficient. I met a man in Colorado who ran his ranch on Solar and Wind power. He had a wind mill generator and solar panels that stored energy in some massive batteries. He also had a big diesel generator that he used when he had to. He was so far off the grid, he didn't have much choice. I stayed at his ranch for a week while elk hunting. He had a very nice place, but they didn't burn any lights unnecessarily.
