Abstract :
A survey on recently installed or developed permanent magnet (PM) synchronous generators for energy conversion in regenerative and alternative power supply systems is given. Its focus is for low speed machines on geared and gearless PM generator systems for wind power plants and small PM hydro generators in gearless coupling. For distributed co-generation of heat and electrical power by micro gas turbines specially designed PM generators for high speed are necessary. Design example for both low speed wind and hydro generators and high speed generators are given along with application examples
