Capstone and Ingersoll-Rand NG turbines seem to be in favor these days =
among the paranoid.

http://www.capstoneturbine.com/
http://www.irpowerworks.com/

These may be up to 2x the cost of a diesel, but they run forever, you =
can put them anywhere, they always start, and the fuel never gets =
fouled. For installations large enough to care about tank pressure, =
heaters are an option, but then there's the question of how you power =
the heater... :)
