In a number of cases, it is an economically sound idea to rent a generator rather than purchase one. And the uses for rental generators span all industries.

Special Events:
If you are running special events on a rotating basis at various locations it makes sense to order rental generators at the new location rather than carting one all over the place. Another obvious advantage is not having to pay for maintenance in case there's a breakdown.

Construction:
Additionally, in construction work, if you are starting on a new site, a rental generator can be delivered to the site. By renting at the start of each job, you save on capital expenses and maintenance, as well as saving yourself the trouble of storing and moving a generator.

Movie Production:
If your business is movie production, there are generators for that specifically that are very quiet.

Telecom:
There are tower power generators available to rent if you are in the telecom sector.

As far as the various sizes of generators, you can get rental generators for different types of applications with varying power outputs. You can hire generators that deliver 25 kW to 125 kW output and those that can deliver between 20kW to 2MWpower output. While the rental generators up to 125 kW rating have electronic governors, the 2000 kW output generator is the quietest generator set you would come across.
