The first is solar panels which can be placed on the roof of your home or on the ground depending on which type you buy. If you have The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle installed you’ll have a few options for getting power to your lot that will be great off the grid. I have yet to find ways to get power without having The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle installed in your game. Once you add the bits you can click to start the generator and water will be created for your lot to use. You also need to have bits in order to add fuel to the water generator.

This is the less desirable option if you want your world to become green since it has an industrial eco footprint and will negatively impact your world. The dew collector will have a green eco footprint influence and will be good for your world.

This dew collector takes no effort other than having it outdoors somewhere on your lot. The first option is the Dew Collector, this will collect water each morning but it won’t amount to a lot but it will let you have a normal shower each day if you wish. If you have The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle you are going to have a lot more options for getting water. Once your sim uses all of this water that they have gathered the lot is going to go back to being off the grid and these regular options will go away until you gather more water. You are able to go to any fishing spot or swimable water (i.e., Sulani ocean) and choose Gather Water which will store some water on your lot and allow you to take regular showers or baths, use a toilet without doing a water saving flush, or use your sink as normal. If you wish to have some water available to your sim you may want to have some extra water that you gather yourself. Grills that you may have outside of your (or inside, no judgement) can function as normal since they are powered by propane or coal or something instead of power.

When you hover over the add ice option on your fridge it says “ fridges will now preserve food even without power, until the ice melts…” and under that description you’ll see the percentage of ice left which gives you a rough idea of how long you have before you absolutely need to add ice. You are now able to add ice to a refrigerator which will allow your fridge to stay cold for 24 hours so you can have leftovers stay fresh in a fridge. The fridge has gotten an off the grid update as well. You are also able to make any kind of salad, or fruit salad since these don’t need any power to cook. When you click on a stove you’ll see cook off the grid as an option and there will be five options to make which are: First off, your options for meals are severely limited. However, they are going to have different functionality. In the kitchen you are able to have a fridge and a stove, as long as you choose one from the Off The Grid category.
