The four generators are coupled
directly with the turbines. Their task is to transform mechanical
energy into electrical energy. With their magnet wheels – outside
diameter 11.2 meters – they work like gigantic dynamos, producing
as much as 2.05 gigawatt hours of power. That’s enough to drive
a 600-tonne train around the earth three
times.
The generated power is fed to the distribution station via transformers
and 50V cables and from there to the three electrical
utilities.
