Probably not so commonplace elsewhere, in which case I'd be inclined towards propane.
There is natural gas in my hometown, and more recently it has been also more widely used as a home fuel to replace propane.

The other option is a more expensive, more noisy diesel genset.
Would have to add some stabilizer due to the biodiesel added, considering a longer-term storage. Kerosene could eventually also be used, but it's no longer so readily available at local gas stations. AFAIK only one or two gas stations in the outskirts of the city still have kerosene available at the pump.
