WAUKESHA, Wis., May 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Generac Power Systems, Inc., (NYSE: GNRC) a leading global designer and manufacturer of energy technology solutions and other power products, today announced the introduction of two new Powermate dual-fuel capable portable generators – the Powermate 4500 Watt Dual Fuel Portable Generator and the Powermate 7500 Watt Dual Fuel Portable Generator. Both models are designed to operate on either gasoline or an LP gas fuel source.

The Powermate 4500 Watt Dual Fuel Portable Generator offers 4,500 starting watts and 3,600 running watts (gas), powerful enough to run small electrical appliances at any picnic or campground, while versatile enough to power tools for home DIY projects.

"Our latest additions to the Powermate lineup provide consumers complete flexibility in how they power their generators for home and recreational use," said Kyle Raabe, president of Generac Consumer Power. "Both the 4500 and 7500 are ideal solutions whether they're working on a weekend home improvement project, planning a tailgate party or thinking about backup power needs. We are excited to offer innovative technology and features that make these generators exceptionally convenient to use."

The generators are powered by Generac® OHV Engines that provide consistent power for multiple applications and use a simple dual-fuel dial to offer the choice of operating with gasoline or LP gas. They feature a steel frame and compact design with integrated wheels and handle, for easy transport. They also offer COsense® technology which detects carbon monoxide levels around the generator and will automatically shut the generator down if carbon monoxide levels become unsafe.
