The first diesel engine ran on coal dust. I'm sure you could modify a diesel generator to run on charcoal dust, which you could make with a wood fire.

I had been thinking straight-up steam, hadn't even considered charcoal/bio diesel.

Though I do like the wood gas idea; should be easy to retune a propane engine for it
