Local autonomous power supply systems are generally limited to stationary applications which, although of vital importance to farm mechanization, still represent a considerably smaller fraction of total energy than that used in mobile mechanization systems powered by tractors and other engine-driven vehicular equipment.
Clearly additional investment in research and development is required to render the autonomous power supply options as economic and user-friendly as possible. Also, it should be noted that the purchased electricity supply, although not autonomous, could still be (at least in part) generated from renewable power sources. From a national perspective, renewable alternatives to diesel fuel for mobile equipment (e.g. oilseed fuels) (see also, Energy Sources: Renewable and Non Renewable) may also be considered as autonomous power.
