A generator can produce energy if a CME occurs. A transformer could blow and cause your power to go out. but they both have something to do with power and energy.

What relationship exsists between turbine and generator?

A turbine is powered by such things as steam, burning gas or oil, water, or wind. The turbine is a type of engine, which might be thought of as a more efficient choice than a gas engine or reciprocating steam engine for doing the same job. The turbine could do many things ranging from powering a vehicle such as a helicopter, a ship, a locomotive, or a piece of equipment such as a centrifuge, a pump, or a generator. When a turbine powers a generator, the generator makes electricity.

Does heat energy make wires in a generator spin?

In a way. It is the difference between temperatures at the inlet and outlet of the steam turbine (generically, a 'heat engine') which results in the turbine spinning -this, in turn, causes the generator to spin.


What forces will turn a turbine of a generator?

Steam, water, or wind can apply force to turn the turbine of a generator. The turbine converts the kinetic energy from these sources into mechanical energy, which in turn drives the generator to produce electricity.
