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
