1. Quieter

The lack of moving parts inside these generator types means that they are a much quieter piece of machinery. This is because they are replaced with battery capacity which is charged and then the subsequent output power is used as standby power or as a continuous power output. While diesel generator technologies have come a long way, most of them still make around 75dB when standing 1 metre away from them. Therefore, hybrid generators are perfect for a business that operates in the events industry or is working in a public or residential area where the sound levels have to be kept at a minimum during working hours. If generators are still needed to power security systems, after working hours, they will run near silently and not disturb residents.

2. Uninterrupted power supply

When power and electric energy is critical to your business or organisation such as a hospital where a drop in power, even for just a small amount of time, could cost lives, you need electrical output performance that isn’t going to dip. Diesel generators, even the best ones, take a few seconds to kick in but if you combine this with a hybrid genset the battery system will provide a continuous power supply.

3. Can be used in remote areas

Hybrid systems, because they are powered by batteries and charged by renewable energy, can be used anywhere. These are truly portable devices and give you greater control about where you can use this generator. If you’re building infrastructure in the middle of a field or you’re running an event that is far away from any power supply then this hybrid output is perfect for you.

4. Light and compact

The lack of traditional parts in these generators means they are much lighter and more compact, so in areas where size and weight constraints are a factor, for instance, if you’re working at a high level on a construction site or your generator is being placed on wood, hybrid generators make a great choice.
