Methods and apparatus for automatic, dynamically adjusted operation of load-sharing gensets. An example of such operation may include determining an updated genset-removal load based on a genset-addition load, an initial genset-removal load, a human-selected one of predetermined levels of dynamism, and the number of operating ones of the gensets. An operating genset is halted in response to the actual loads of each operating genset simultaneously being at or below the updated genset-removal load. In another example, while two or more gensets are operating, an updated genset-removal load is determined based on the genset-addition load and a hysteresis setpoint, and an operating genset is halted in response to actual loads of each operating genset simultaneously being at or below the updated genset-removal load.
