Hi Kenneth,  
That much power is going to eat a lot of fuel. I would recommend a wood gasifier. You’re going to need a wood chunker and fuel storage shed too.  
I recommend you look at what @Tone has done. He has converted a diesel tractor, which should be fairly efficient. He has also come up with a gasifier, with an extra nozzle down low in the grate area, that I think should do well in a stationary setup.
