Zusammenfassung: | An electrical energy generator array generates electricity from at least one form of natural flow, the generator having a drive shaft driven by energy from a natural energy flow and connected to a drive mechanism. The generator includes an integrated electric motor and a plurality of individual generators disengageably connected to the drive mechanism. Each generator is connected via a series of ties to form a connected generator array, the array being rotated by the drive mechanism when connected thereto, or by the integrated electric motor when disconnected from the drive mechanism, to generate electricity. The generator may include an electrical storage device arranged to power the integrated electric motor. A method of generating electricity from at least one natural energy flow, for supply to an electrical storage device, for local use or for supply to an electric grid includes using an electrical energy generator array as described. |
