Hybrid Generators
Our MK1 units are low cost, high quality hybrid generators that are designed for use in the oil and gas industry. MK1 is made up of two parts, the 5220w solar array, and the power control unit. The solar arrays are all aluminum construction that utilizes a counter weight to hold the arrays in place. This makes it extremely easy to install and very versatile on any location. It also makes it easy to expand with more solar arrays if needed. The power unit consists of a 840AH battery bank that is rated at 3000 cycles to 50% DOD (10+ year life expectancy). High quality marine grade 3kW inverter charger, 3KW auto start back up generator. The power unit is a sealed and environmentally controlled for operation in harsh northern climates.

More Than Just A Power Supply Unit
MK1 is not just a power supply unit. It is designed to use with our non-venting valve control system. Our valve control system is so efficient and reliable that we don't need excessive amounts of power. This system has eliminated the need for pneumatics, resulting in zero emissions being released. Please see our actuator page for more specific information.
MK1 hybrid generators are capable of providing a peak output of 1000 watts of pure sine wave 120v AC, and 1000w of 24v DC power. With an impressive 250w continuous load. The power unit can be paralleled with another MK1 power unit to double its output, as well as giving you 120/240 volt split phase. MK1 also has remote monitoring, offering the ability to see realtime power consumption, status, and alarms.
The goal with MK1 is to offer an affordable power solution, that burns next to nothing for fuel while giving you more than enough power for the site's needs. This unit will save emissions dramatically on your site. The savings don't stop there, with almost no fuel burnt you will save on propane/natural gas and you will also save with very little maintenance on the unit. Installation is simple with the plug-and-play set up. Remote access allows for you to monitor power consumption, run time, fuel burnt, and battery life.
MK1 Hybrid Generators: Real World Results

Here's a MK1 on site, a pad that has 6 wells on it. It is running all of the electric actuators along with all of the site's power needs. It replaced the need for 2 TEG units on this site. Since install, the MK1 has saved $500 of propane and 1800kg of CO2 in just one month!
- High quality TIG welded aluminum construction
- Built for the oil and gas industry, to increase efficiency and reduce emissions
- Extremely low maintenance
- Fully expandable
