Hello,
When you take into account that you would be getting a large discount for
the propane because your order is large. As well as the fact that you require
2 15+ KW generators to keep the place running it would be a close call. You
need 2 generators that can handle the full power load in case one dies. At
roughly $52.00 a day in fuel plus repairs and maintenance it would be
interesting as to the cost difference, but the best thing would be the quiet.
:) Right now the gen's are air cooled because they were cheap and it costs a
lot of money to just buy new ones. The only big factor is the cost of the
propane fridges and freezers.

Well, at least I hope the guy actually costs out this move. Propane
freezers? Propane is expensive stuff, can't imagine how all this stuff could
be
run off propane, especially for anything like a small resort, more cheaply
than
a good diesel cogen unit, even if you just burned dino-diesel.
