Home standby natural
gas generators that are connected to the municipal natural gas
network don't require any fuel storage at all, they get their fuel
from the natural gas line which typically work even during power
outages.
Additionally, most
natural gas generators for residential use can also run on propane
and come equipped with propane tank connectors. Propane does not
spoil in storage like gasoline or diesel, it can be stored
indefinitely. Some composite propane tanks can experience some
leakage, but good quality stainless steel tanks are very well sealed
and do not leak at all.
But be aware that some
states and counties have regulations on how much propane an
individual can store at any given time. To store larger amounts, you
may be have to request a permit. So be sure to check your local
regulations.
