Generac’s EcoGen is the first automatic standby generator designed specifically for off-grid use in an alternative energy system. Whether one is living off-grid by choice or as a requirement, EcoGen is an affordable, reliable, propane-fueled alternative to traditional standby and portable generators. EcoGen works in conjunction with existing solar and wind power energy generation. When the power from these sources dips below an acceptable level, the inverter charger automatically signals the generator to start up.
Editors’ Comments: The EcoGen is ideal for weekend retreats, vacation homes, detached in-law suites, and other off-the-grid residential applications.
