GridGenius Variable Speed Generators

Diesel Electric Generators That Cut Fuel Use, Not Power

Innovus Power builds variable speed diesel and biodiesel gensets from 250kW to 2.5MW. One unit can replace 2-3 fixed-speed sets and hold utility-grade power quality.

  • 250kW to 2.5MW, built in 250kW increments
  • Fuel savings of 20-50% versus fixed-speed gensets
  • Utility-grade 3-phase power, islanded or grid-tied

Over 30 years of power engineering. 24/7 remote monitoring and support worldwide.

Why buyers choose GridGenius diesel gensets

Burn far less fuel

Variable speed engines run at the best speed for each load. Fuel savings run 20-50%, and up to 80% when renewables are added.

Fewer machines to run

One GridGenius VSG running 24/7 can replace 2-3 fixed-speed gensets. That means less maintenance, fewer spare parts and less training.

Clean 3-phase power

Utility-grade power quality specifications are always met. Better power protects your electric and electronic equipment.

Low loads are no problem

The unit runs continuously at low load with high efficiency and no added maintenance risk. Maintenance cycles are extended.

Ready for solar and wind

Add solar, wind and storage later. GridGenius supports up to 90+% renewable penetration without curtailment.

Watched around the clock

PowerView and FleetGenius software give you 24/7 remote monitoring and management support worldwide.

What you get with a GridGenius VSG

The GridGenius Variable Speed Generator decouples engine speed from electrical frequency. The engine runs at the best speed for the load while the GridGenius Energy Center holds steady, utility-grade three-phase output.

Units are built on qualified engines from Caterpillar, Cummins, MTU/Rolls Royce and Volvo Penta. Innovus is vendor-agnostic, so the design follows your site, not a brand.

  • Output from 250kW to 2.5MW in 250kW increments
  • Fuels: diesel, biodiesel, natural gas, propane and biogas
  • Up to 35% lower annual operating costs and emissions vs fixed speed
  • Islanded or grid-tied; grid-forming or grid-following
  • Automatic paralleling between multiple GridGenius systems
  • Rapid Deployment Flex Microgrid option: 250kW to 2MW in a 40-foot mobile platform
  • All acceptance testing completed before shipment
  • Post-commissioning O&M, maintenance plans and operator training

Built for demanding sites

“Innovus Power is an innovative group of individuals who work, tirelessly, to develop and create moderate to large-power generation systems for both remote primary and/or back-up power sourcing with managed pure electrical power (DC, AC, at any frequency, phase, or Kilowatt capacity needed.) In most cases, they try to use "Building Block," reliability-proven major components, when practical, but can also produce custom systems to suit. The systems can and do include self-monitoring capabilities which allow remote operation and safety systems to ensure the most reliable capabilities and warnings of impending maintenance needs. Several systems are in operation and have proven reliable around the world, providing steady clean power including remote locations where normal Grid-Connection is not available or practical. Safety and stability are key considerations in all of their designs providing continuous analysis of the loads, waveform, transient conditions, and end-to-end system level monitoring to protect both the system, itself as well as the connected load customers. The team strives to use the latest technologies, available, such as permanent magnet alternators, and inverter-based AC sources, super capacitor storage, and the abilities to connect and continuously manage several power sourcing technologies together, using what is available at a given time to support the connected loads, all the while providing analysis reports of the current status of output, the source levels, and system status both locally and remotely, if desired.”
Gilbert Gossett
“Innovus Power has proven themselves as true professionals based on technical know how, unique advanced technology, and genuine customer service. Contrary to what Eugene XO posted, I personally saw Innovus go to great lengths to satisfy a customer who experienced a delay caused by supply chain issues (no fault of Innovus). Their technology is truly unique and allows microgrids to operate at greater efficiency and with more renewable (solar or wind) capacity then would otherwise be possible. I highly recommend Innovus Power.”

“The team is excellent with extensive knowledge of energy and lowering costs. Have worked with Innovus for years and always found service to be very good.”

Frequently asked questions

How much does a diesel electric generator cost?

Pricing is quoted on request. Cost depends on output, engine choice, fuel type, packaging and any solar, wind or storage you add. Send your load details and we will price it.

What sizes do you offer?

Single units run from 250kW to 2.5MW in 250kW increments. Multiple GridGenius systems parallel automatically, and full microgrid platforms scale to 200+MW.

Is the output three phase and utility grade?

Yes. GridGenius systems always meet utility-grade power quality specifications and can run grid-forming or grid-following, islanded or grid-tied.

Can I rent a unit instead of buying?

No. Innovus Power sells systems for purchase only. Project financing options are available through our development partners.

Do you sell home or portable generators?

No. Innovus Power builds commercial, industrial and utility-scale systems starting at 250kW for businesses, communities and government sites.

Where do you deliver and support systems?

The USA, Canada, the Caribbean, remote Arctic locations and worldwide, backed by 24/7 remote monitoring and management support.
