Abstract: In general, a generator set system may include a primary module including: an engine; a generator coupled to the engine and configured to convert mechanical energy of the engine to electrical energy; a primary frame configured to support the engine and the generator; and a first coupling. The generator set system also may include a secondary module including a secondary module including: at least one of a heat recovery module, an exhaust module, a cooling system module, a fuel system module, a solar power module, a battery module, an electrical system module, an air intake module, or an air outlet module; a secondary frame; and a second coupling. The first coupling and the second coupling are configured to automatically electrically or fluidically couple the primary module to the secondary module upon assembling the primary frame and the secondary frame.

Abstract: In general, techniques of this disclosure are directed to a modular generator set system. A generator set system may comprise a primary module, which may include an engine, a generator coupled to the engine, a primary frame configured to support the engine and the generator, and a first guiding element. The generator set system may also include a secondary module, a secondary frame, and a second guiding element that is reciprocal to the first guiding element such that, during installation of the secondary module, the second guiding element is configured to interface with the first guiding element to align the secondary module for purposes of automatically electrically or fluidically coupling the primary module to the secondary module upon assembling the primary frame and the secondary frame.

Abstract: A containerized generator set comprises a container, a generator set, a radiator, and a cooling fan. The generator set, radiator, and cooling fan are disposed within an interior volume defined by the container. The interior volume has a length, width, and height. The generator set comprises an engine and a generator. The cooling fan is mechanically coupled to the engine, and the cooling fan has a diameter that is substantially the same as the width of the interior volume. The cooling fan may further have a swept cross-sectional area that is at least 60% of the cross-sectional area of the interior volume.

Abstract: The disclosure describes a generator set that includes a generator, an engine mechanically coupled to the generator, an enclosure housing the engine and the generator, a heating system, and a renewable energy-powered energy source. The generator is configured to supply power to an electrical system. The heating system is configured to heat at least one of the engine or the enclosure to at least a startup temperature. The renewable energy-powered energy source is configured to supply energy to the heating system to heat the at least one of the engine or the enclosure.
