Anyone compare the cost of using a natural gas generator vs local coop electricity? I’m single phase and have a 400 amp service. I’m using natural gas to dry my corn.
Some info that might make the comparison somewhat easier is attached. Hard to get a handle on fuel consumption/efficiency in this kind of situation. Recycling heat will improve the economics greatly. Usually a generator is only considered when there is no reasonable alternative. Reasonable might hinge on cost or availabilty.
