Yeah, effective 2028. Hopefully that should give enough time for the price to come down on the all-electric ones.
@Parienve @valleyforge I had to see what an all-electric generator looked like. Found this: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jenniferhicks/2021/01/27/this-startup-wants-to-make-zero-emissions-portable-power-a-thing/?sh=bab974576d45
It's basically a portable battery bank. I guess it could get you through rolling blackouts if sized appropriately, but it wouldn't help much in an extended outage.

Can confirm. Effort to going eco-friendly.
