My vote....PTO driven. We have a 12kw PTO generator mounted on a trailer. We can connect her to any of three tractors we have so the likelihood of one of the tractors not starting or being available is rear to non-existent. (Knock on wood).
Just as an FYI, the standard is usually 2HP for every Kw. We run ours mainly behind a 24HP diesel utility tractor and it does well but she lugs down hard when pulling a good amount of that 12Kw power.
Lastly, like with any generator PTO or otherwise, suggest that you test it out at least quarterly. That way you can ensure that the generator itself (e.g. windings, etc) are all ok and won"t leave you in the dark at the worst time.
