Interesting enough, many fire departments won't allow roof mounted generators anymore because storing fuel along with it is considered hazardous. We had an awful time getting our 250 kw generator installed and ended up with it on the ground level next to the parking garage with an integral fuel storage tank; it was the easiest to get permitted. Also, if you have ever been to MAE-East, you might realize that one particular tenant that is effectively "sub-letted" in the facility would probably have a slim to none chance of getting such a thing installed. I suspect the DC to AC inverters are best for folks to try, but it would have been nice if MFS had addressed the issue in a more effecient manner when the new facility was constructed.
