It's cool but what do u do with a 100kw generator power your whole Neighborhood?

HEHEH...**** good question!..lol...But in reality I have three buildings Id like to have powered when the power drops off like it does from time to time...

What kind of power plant gives you guys power normally? Is it a nuke plant? No way it could be coal fired.

In Hawaii its oil fired steam turbine...we get most of our oil from offshore where the tankers hook up to the bouy...right offshore from the airport here...The Kahe point powerplant is nearby...but this grid is old as dirt...and the old NAS Barbers electricity is even older!! So blackouts occasionally are ops norm...

Alright, that's what I was wondering. That explains it all. That generator should be more than enough to run those three buildings unless you have some high load devices. Did you get it to its new home yet?
