i didn't think it was available yet? do you work for BG?
I think the idea is a bit pointless tbh. We're being encouraged to look for ways of using alternatives to fossil fuels, not setting up a gas fired power station in the kitchen.
Don't they weight a ton as well?

As far as I recall this is a 24 kw gas boiler with a built in 1 kW Sterling gas generator. Weighs about £112 kG and costs about £5k at the moment.
It always seemed a little pointless to combine two items when if sold seperately with a combining unit for generators would widen the appeal!

Hope they bother giving training on it 
Sorry if I was 3 kg too low in the weight! ( I also put a £ sign on the weight too )
I always remove casings from boilers before lifting them.
Once, in a difficult situation, I removed the Gianonni burner/heat exchanger assembly, pump, plate and gas valve to make it as light as possible as it was being installed on a wall about an improperly supported granite work surface.

I have this uncomfortable feeling that this will be a free perk!
But back to the interesting bits!
What do you think of how it performs?
How has the mains output been connected? They say that it can sync up to the mains and feed power back to the grid if the local demand is lower. Never any suggestion of tarrifs or how the output is to be metered though.
Here, during occupied hours the demand must be about 3 kW and at other times about 1 kW so no hope of one of those feeding any power out !
