About The Silent Generator

This site was put together in 2009 initially as a way to document and share my fascination and interest towards portable power generators especially those used for recreational activities like camping and hiking. I was delighted to learn about a special class of lightweight and relatively quiet generator variety, the inverter generator, and set forth to put together this site as a guide for other people who has similar interests as me and are out there in search for the perfect unit for their specific needs.

As you can see, as of 2011, this site has grown beyond that initial purpose and has also included many other topics besides portable power generation. My interests in this field has grown into including not only conventional power generation methods using fossil-fueled electric generators but has I’ve also started providing information about alternative energy both in the portable and non-portable fields. The fact is that portable generators aren’t just for recreational use only and that most of these machines serve a host of other purposes. You will certainly find topics such as backup power options for home or business owners. This includes topics in conventional and renewable power generation such as solar, wind, hydroelectric power generators, etc; all for small, medium or large scale uses. I’ve also included a news section sharing information on latest industry and technological developments.

The world of power generation (portable or otherwise) has, for years, been an excitingly fast-paced industry especially with the preference for cleaner and gleaner options becoming more mainstream. People are becoming more creative in finding ways to produce energy and electricity and I hope that upon reading pages on this site you’ll learn more about that ingenious creativity that I’m seeing almost on a daily basis in the news.

Thank you for visiting The Silent Generator and do come back often.
