Yup. Great option if you're far from the grid, or if the the grid is unreliable and you need to have some backup plans (solar, generator).
Theoretically, if you had access to a reliable grid with a free electricity market with no regulation obstacles or subsidies, the power from the grid would be always cheaper than what you can obtain yourself.
The problem of the subsidies and free market obstacles is that it shifts the incentives of profit maximizatiin away from builduing and maintaining reliable grids with cheap energy inch by inch towards milking the subsidies.
