Why not just use some solar and wind with grid tie to offset your electrical use?
Granted solar won't do anything at night but it will during the day.
Wind will be periodic day and night.
I know here where we live my network equipment runs me about $50/mo to use at 10 cents per KWh.
I have two grid tie inverters that are VERY ineffective but during the day they but out around 300W together to offset my costs so at this point, sure they help but I can tell you what not to get, do NOT get those 200 to 1000W chinese grid tie inverters.
I have around 1200W worth of solar panels and I get 1/4 of what they are capable of.
I only know this because I use a Brultech electrical monitoring system which monitors my mains and each breaker in my panel which when enabled does detect reverse flow such as grid tie inverters feeding back into my home.
Brultech Research Inc has been a pioneer in the design and development of Energy Consumption Monitoring for residential appliances and loads.

The more efficient option might be to do the grid tie inverters that directly attach to the panels but I wanted the option be be able to use the DC for other things so I didn't go that route.
Granted there are things you can do to reduce the server's power consumption but you can only do so much.
My server seems to idle at about 150W or so and can peak 400W. I have 2 pools but the one I don't use much is set to sleep after 60 minutes.
@ChrisRJ OUTCH! Yea I've heard about the energy crud going on out there, that HURTS! I expect in the coming years that prices like that will be seen over much of the world which is why I plan to go off grid in the future as it's currently difficult for me to do.
Wind, Solar, hydro if possible with at least a 48,000 Ah Nickel Iron battery bank.
Nickel Iron, while having many disadvantages has the advantages of lasting a lifetime, being alkaline instead of acidic, it's impossible to under or over charge them and when the fluid change schedule comes up you can save the fluid and use it in your garden as a fertilizer.
Stay away from the Chinese batteries though. Reports have suggested that because they layer the metal plates they have a tenancy to separate when under or over charged. Something nickel iron batteries don't usually care about.
Yea, not ALL of this is related to what you are trying to do but it might spark some thoughts about how to save some power and money, well once some extra money is spent.
