Generator Installed
It took ingenuity and solid engineering skills to adapt the replacement Soga permanent magnet generator (PMG) to our existing turbine tower and drive train. With Jeff Willis’s leadership and Antonio Ojeda’s engineering genius, the generator is installed on its platform and ready to go. The top photo shows the tower with the specially designed supports for the generator in place. A next step is to install the brake disk and caliper system, then finally install the coupler between the generator drive shaft and the turbine drive shaft.
