Webinar series offers primer on diesel generators

The following is text of a news release from the Diesel Technology Forum:

(FREDERICK, Md.) — There are more technology and fuel options than ever before when it comes to sources of standby power generation and prime power. Gaseous fuels, solar and wind power, and battery backup are available today. For most applications, nothing beats the durability, portability and reliability of diesel technology.

The Diesel Technology Forum has organized a two-part educational webinar to get a briefing from the leaders of standby and prime power of all technology types. Our first webinar will provide you with an understanding of the unique attributes of technology with a narrowed focus on diesel technology. Our second webinar will provide you with a better understanding of the regulations and test procedures that cover this equipment along with a real world understanding of how this equipment and technology is used in the field and permitted by local planners. Presenters include:
