Over the past year we have installed a handful of wildcat 15 kw generators. Lead times remain a challenge but so far no operational issues.

Good morning all if you did not catch the last email on this project the manufacturer is Wildcat Generators and should be in the history
I’m on vacation at the moment and operating from the phone with no Internet where we’re staying
Wildcat was hoping by early November to EOY to have a 15 KW and possibly a 10 KW though not UL listed.
The 15KW is slated to get UL listing down the road Time still to be determined

Hi Dana,

Touching base to see how this project is going? I could definitely sell several units a year of this config. Very needed.

Thanks,

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.

Hey now all you off grid designer/installers,

I just had a conversation with generator manufacturer (name withheld for the moment), about 8-13KW water cooled gensets with UL & LP gas powered. 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.
