The Kenerator Story
To Make Dad Proud
The Kenerator story began in Las Vegas, NV, where young Ken Goodrich, nicknamed ‘The Kenerator’ by his father, built a generator for a science fair to impress his engineer dad. When the teacher doubted his work, it sparked a lifelong mission to bring reliable home power plants to the world.

You Have Questions?
We have Answers
Q: What exactly is a home power plant?
A home power plant is your backup power system, designed to keep your family powered during outages. Just like utility power plants vary in size and capability, so do home power plants. They can range from small systems powering a few essential devices to comprehensive setups that can supply energy for your entire home, your neighbors, and more for extended periods. An ideal home power plant typically includes:
• A standby generator
• Surge protection capabilities
• Electrical device monitoring
• Battery backup systems
Q: Do you sell portable generators or rent them?
Nope, portable generators are great for camping trips or construction sites,
but they’re not a true backup power solution. We specialize in whole-home
power plants that keep your smart home smart, even during an outage. And renting generators? Unless it’s for a construction project or a one-time event, it’s not a practical way to ensure your family’s safety and comfort. The smarter move? A Kenerator home power plant—reliable, resilient, and ready to power your life.
Q: Can you install a generator at my house asap?
We’d love to say yes, but generator projects are more of a marathon than a sprint. They involve architects, engineers, electricians, plumbers, and, sometimes, the dreaded HOA and permitting offices. While we’ve had rare cases of someone buying a power plant on Monday and having it installed by Tuesday, that’s not the norm. Most installations take anywhere from a week to a few months, depending on your location and local red tape. During your complimentary consultation, we’ll size your generator, find the perfect spot, discuss fuel sources, and outline the timeline. Want to get started? Book your consultation in less than a minute here.
Q: How much does backup power cost?
Great question! It really depends on how prepared you want to be. The smallest Kenerator—a hand-crank mini generator with a flashlight, emergency radio, and phone charger—costs us about $10. (We give it away for free at consultations, by the way.) But for a full home power solution? That depends on your lifestyle. How do you want your family to live during an outage—one hour, one day, or one week? Prices for backup power systems range from $10,000 to $100,000, similar to how cars vary in cost based on features and quality. During your consultation, we’ll help you figure out the perfect solution for your home and budget.
Q: What is a kenerator?
Kenerator is both a brand and a backup power company. We design and sell backup power solutions—batteries, generators, and complete home power plants. Our products are installed nationwide by Kengineer-certified partners or by actual Kengineers in certain markets. If you’re in Texas or Florida, you can even book a complimentary consultation. And if you want to view our full range, visit the Generators page.
Q: Where are you located?
Kenerators can be installed anywhere in the U.S. by our certified partners. If you’re in Florida or Texas, you’re in luck—our very own Kengineers are ready to serve you locally. Need repairs? Call us 24/7 at +1 214-890-6181. Officially, we’re a Delaware company with operations in Texas and Florida, but what matters is that wherever you are, we’ve got you covered with backup power solutions.
Q: Do you provide services like HVAC or plumbing?
While installing home power plants requires expert tradesmen similar to those found in HVAC and plumbing, we specialize exclusively in emergency backup power. Unlike companies that offer a range of services, our sole focus is on providing reliable backup power solutions.
