The selection of a generator is influenced by several parameters
These are the most important parameters determining the best generator for your situation:
A power generator runs optimally at full load. Once you lower the load level (eg when your power demand fluctuates); a power module becomes rather inefficient. Consider a power setup with multiple generators running in parallel to optimize the overall efficiency. Quite often, 2 smaller generators working in parallel are more efficient than one oversized generator.
Based on our experience of powering all kinds of sites, we have developed this easy generator selector guide.
The impact of load profiles on generator selection
Choosing the right size generator can boost your project with higher efficiency and lower cost. When you don't select the right power generator, you could severely harm your operation.
Here are some of the highest risks:
