I’ve always seen per-house solar panels to supplement the energy requirement which is mostly met through conventional means. Do you have an example of “decentralised solar and wind” energy meet the needs completely?
Several, here in Spain there are quite a few chalets that use solar roofs for their own consumption and even have surpluses to repay surpluses to the network. Decentralizing energy production is a more efficient way than centralized production, naturally the energy industry is still putting obstacles, but this is already changing little by little. People realize that a house can be energetically self-sufficient with current technologies.

It’s more efficient because you’re constantly producing energy that you don’t always need, so you feed it back into the grid that otherwise burns coal/etc to make up the deficit.
Is it good? Yes. Does that mean houses are better than apartments? Lol no

How is it more efficient?
