What is the Cost of Installing a Commercial Generator?

The cost of installing a commercial generator into your Wisconsin business can range from $3,000 to $10,000 for a generator outputting 10kW - 20kWs. This output is often adequate for small to medium-sized businesses.

Commercial generator pricing is based on the type, size, power capacity, and other features of the generator in question. Backup generators for large-scale industrial businesses can cost up to hundreds of thousands of dollars due to the large output required to power their facility.

Commercial Generator Types

Common types of backup generators used in commercial buildings are natural gas generators, propane generators, gas generators, bi-fuel generators, and diesel generators. Which generator you go with can depend on a few factors.

Main Factors for Choosing a Commercial Generator

  • Power needs
  • Size and capacity
  • Fuel type & expected fuel efficiency
  • Expected runtime
  • Maintenance requirements
  • Cost
  • Available warranty

Frequently Asked Questions on Commercial Generators

How big of a generator do I need for a commercial building?

The size of the generator you need for your commercial building will depend on a few factors. This includes the total building-wide required wattage, the highest required starting wattage for equipment (where more power is needed on startup than running), and the preferred fuel while considering what is available, estimated annual fuel costs, and any environmental concerns.

How much does an industrial-size generator cost?

The cost of an industrial-sized backup generator can range anywhere from $15,000 to $200,000+. Factors affecting final prices are the type of generator, generator size, and required generator power capacity.

How long can a commercial generator run?

How long a commercial generator can run depends on a few factors, including the generator’s size and capacity, fuel type, and the load being powered. Some industrial generators can provide continuous power for days or weeks without interruption.

How many hours does a commercial generator last?

A commercial generator can last up to 30,000 hours without requiring a significant overhaul. The lifespan of a generator ultimately will depend on its history of timely maintenance, type of fuel used, and the environment the generator is used in.

Randy Jacobson

We had a Generac whole house generator installed by Ideal Electric. Prior to installation, we had questions and communicated via email. Jeremy (the owner) responded quickly and answered all our questions. He and his crew came on the day they said they would. The installation process took a day which is what he had said. They cleaned up everything and even vacuumed in our basement. I would highly recommend Ideal Electric for any of electric needs.

Mike Schreiber

I had another electrician install my Generac emergency generator, unfortunately. After 3 weeks of having the other guy back, I found Jeremy. He not only is a generac dealer, he is a certified technician on them. He was able to remedy the issue that has been a headache for me since the original hookup . I would strongly urge and recommend him to my family and friends.
