I live in Finland, in a few months it'll be -20C outside and about 0-10 hours of sun per month, depending on cloud coverage. Solar is not really an option for half the time here. Wind is bit better, but unfortunately doesn't quite work at the coldest times.

It's possible that nobody should live in Finland...

You guys may be fine with 4°C and already have nuclear power. Weird country.
