These were the type where the power company bought back your excess electricity. My next door neighbor, however, insisted it was a government plot to install new electric meters that let the deep state turn off your electricity via satellite on command (not kidding). I heard he died of a heart attack the week after we moved down here. Too bad, he'd have fit right in down here.
The term your looking for are “Luddites” many would feel a home at the beginning of industrial revolution.
The younger generation feel more at home with modern technology. I'm not talking about golf balls and clubs.
