6th Edition Onsite Power Generation: A Comprehensive Guide to On-Site Power
The Electrical Generating Systems Association's Onsite Power Generation: A Comprehensive Guide to Onsite Power has evolved considerably since its earliest editions. What began as a reference addressing the fundamental technologies of onsite power generation has grown along with the industry to encompass the systems, components, applications, and practices required to understand onsite power generation as a whole.
The 6th Edition is expected to be available for delivery by the end of October 2026.
The Sixth Edition continues that evolution with a significant reorganization of the Reference Book. Content has been arranged in a more logical progression that reflects how an onsite power generation system is encountered and understood in the field. Rather than treating the book simply as a collection of individual technical subjects, the new organization helps readers develop an understanding of the generator set and its supporting systems as an integrated whole, moving through the technologies and components in a sequence that more closely reflects the physical system and its application.
The Sixth Edition also adds five new chapters that expand the Reference Book into important areas of technology, application, service, and maintenance:
- Fuel Systems – Hydrogen
- Troubleshooting On-Site Power Generating Systems
- Generator Systems Maintenance Reference
- Mobile Power Generation Reference
- Fuel Cell Power Solutions
Together, these additions broaden the book's treatment of emerging fuel and power technologies while substantially strengthening its practical value for the professionals responsible for applying, maintaining, and troubleshooting onsite power systems in the field.
