Most portable outdoor power comes from diesel generators. They’re loud, smelly, and terrible for the environment. Moxion’s MP-75 is a battery-powered generator, which means it uses no fuel, is almost entirely silent, and has no emissions. A single unit, which is the size of a small truck, can power entire construction sites, music concerts, and disaster response efforts, and each one is capable of running an average American home for about a month. Amazon is an investor in the company and also a customer, using Moxion’s battery-powered generators to power Amazon Studios production sets.
