If you look at one of the listeroid engines it would be almost perfect for what you need and have.

Have a look at a recent electricity bill - how many Kwh per week are you using each week ?

If you can produce 40 litres of oil/frytol then from a listeroid this will give you approx 160Kw/h of electricity


A listeroid 6/1 with electric start will cost you about $3500 landed in Australia. As long as you are handy you will be able to break this down and clean it up for running without too many issues.

Figure about another $1500 for automation and heat exchangers/pumps etc and you will get out of it for $5K

From what i can read people are prediciting about a 300% increase in electricity prices in NSW over the next 5 years
