If you stick to generating power renewably, you are protected by law  
and good PR.  If you work through the local grid's net metering  
program, you are cool.  The utility provides these programs either  
because they are required by law, or it would look really bad if they  
didn't.  They would rather not do it, but have to.

The second you generate power non-renewably, they are going to shut  
you down.  You have no legal right for that, and they would not be  
inclined to grant one.  Then, if you could get past local ordinances,  
you would need to become a licensed and regulated electricity  
provider, and if you had enough electricity to sell, you could get  
contracted for it.  Probably not worth the trouble until you get  
reliable megawatts.
