EVs run on 400 to 800 volt batteries. Solar generating systems are being built well over 100 MW and the newest providing power at under 2 cents per kWh.
Actually I can't imagine a 22 lb generator will satisfy a remote village (as said in the link) for very long. Still need to truck in fuel at still more cost.
Otherwise for RV use let us know when Amazon has some to ship.
1) the comparison to solar was with regard to powering a vehicle.... not a village. You can't fit a 100kW solar system on a car!
2) where do you get "22 pounds" ?? The 16kW generator engine weighs 120kG !
And further, a 16kW very fuel efficient generator will go far to help a simple village off the grid..... even if they have to truck in a few hundred gallons of fuel every month or so.
