I heard back Friday from the generator manufacturers executive board meeting Friday morning there is their response:
________ Hi Dana, I spoke with the executives this morning and we're very excited to hear what the demand is for this genset is. If it makes sense, we're all in. ------------ Please let me know if your interest in a 13KW - 1800 RPM genset - water cooled is of interest for you & your off grid clients. I see this as a big opportunity for replacing the oversized gensets that we have been forced to use for a long time now.

I explained that there is a long time hole in the market since Onan & Kohler dropped their gensets for prime power in this size range. If they made the investment to produce & UL certify a 13KW - 1800 RPM - water cooled - 2 wire start, prime power rated - 120/240vac genset, how many off grid systems are being installed with oversized gensets? If this was available how many units would each of you be interested in per year? I am not asking for a commitment just a market survey for this sized unit. If there was 20-30 companies selling 4-5+ each per year this might be a possibility. Let me know either off list or on list (if this is OK ? Michael let us know) & I hope there is a possibility here for more appropriately sized & available gensets for our off grid client systems. I will be passing along this research to the OE manufacturer. If you do not want your name passed along let me know for now. Dana Orzel Great Solar Works, Inc.
