density, electric machines with high-energy PMs are at least competitive with all optimally designed singly-fed synchronous and induction electric machines

An alternator (or synchronous generator) is an electrical generator that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy in the form of alternating current

magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers
