It's a heat exchanger. It's the new propane technology. The Marathon Engine Systems ecopower™ cogeneration system does it all in one neat package. This innovative, propane-fueled combined heat and power system earned a 2011 Energy Star Emerging Technology award. Why? In part, because this generator allows homeowners and small businesses to return all unused electricity to the main power grid — resulting in a usage credit or a lower overall utility bill. In addition, the ecopower unit is good for the budget and the environment because it turns engine heat into thermal energy, which can power space- or water-heating applications while producing signifi cantly fewer CO2 emissions than traditional power plants.
