Glacier Bay generators are the heart of the Glacier Bay diesel-electric propulsion system.  Whether you are creating a full propulsion package or simply powering our accessories, it all starts here.  In a world of thousands of generator manufacturers, just how different is Glacier Bay?  A glance at our specifications makes it clear that no one comes close to our technology.  

All of our generators feature OSSA Powerlite® technology, an intelligent power management platform desiged to maximise efficiency and performance. OSSA Powerlite Enabled© components are what really set Glacier Bay apart.  This technology allows us to design an exceptionally high power density generator that is smaller and lighter than any other. Additionally, Glacier Bay generators are Propulsion Duty Rated™ to meet rigorous international commerical requirements, assuring your generator will deliver 100% of the rated output hour after hour, week after week — AND still have extra power in reserve for those tight situations.

The advantages of Glacier Bay generators don't stop here. Larger generators (25kW and up) feature advanced common rail injection (CRI) — a high-pressure, precision metering technology that saves fuel and reduces emissions while also virtually eliminating diesel "knock" and "wetstacking". Only Glacier Bay manufactures the smallest capacity engines to use this state-of-the-art technology.

Consider these additional exclusive Glacier Bay features:

Glacier Bay's OSSA Powerlite Enabled generators are available in capacities of 6, 15, 25, 50, 150 and 200kW.
