Seems I could start this as well. I live in a small town in Norway, our community has a lot of hydro power stations. Our electricity costs about 0.25 nok (0.03$) per kWh. All locals use alot of electric heaters around their homes (2500w+ / piece). Alot of my Dutch friends keep joking about moving their 'pot farms' up here due to this lol.

Pro's compared to Venzuela:
- Temperature. Its goddamn cold here.
- Extremely stable nation. We just shoot moose here not people.
- Power outage extremely rare.
- Many others that I am too tired to think of now.

Anyway, but I'm not gonna put a shitload of machines in a place with risking fires or other claims from owners. Seen too much shit go down for a 'friendly' service.

Oh almost forgot, the Cons:
- Value of money for maintainer. As a Venezuelan guy would be happy with 200 bucks. An Norwegian Viking would be able to get 2 beers and a pack of smokes for that. So there are not only 'Pros' ^_^
