The Museum of the Bible (MOTB), located just three blocks from the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., opened to the public in 2017. A 1920s-era, refrigerated warehouse was completely renovated to house the 430,000 square foot museum complex. The transformation came with a unique set of needs to fit the MOTB’s vision of becoming one of the most technologically advanced and engaging museums in the world.

Through the expansion into larger gaseous gen-set nodes, Generac Industrial Power continues to dominate the market in cost-effective natural gas solutions. Generac’s 750 kW generator is the company’s largest and most powerful gaseous generator to date.

Demand Response (DR) or Demand Side Response (DSR) programs reduce demand on the utility supply in the event of a utility grid emergency. They do this by allowing the local electric utility — typically an Independent System Operator (ISO) or regional electric utility company — to automatically and remotely use an organization’s on-site generators, transferring some or all of a facility’s load from the grid to the generator.
