Abstract: An energy providing assembly is powered by a water cooled internal combustion engine suspended within an enclosure by compliant springs and restrained by resilient snubbing means which limits movement of the suspended engine. Generating apparatus for generating mains specification electrical power and/or refrigeration apparatus, including a compressor, for refrigerating a coolant are fixed to and driven by the engine and are accessed by accessible coupling means which include a power outlet and plug-in coolant circuit connections. The refrigeration apparatus is arranged in heat exchange relationship with a coolant circuit associated with the coolant circuit connections whereby a remote fan coil unit may be installed by running conventional hoses to the apparatus and connecting to the coolant circuit connections.
