 +Assuming a bad (20%) or decent (30%) turbine design \rho_{turbine}=0.26
 +A rather bad permanent magnet alternator with \rho_{alternator}=0.75;
 +A normal synchronous rectifier with superb-by-design perfomance of \rho_{rect}=0.98;
 +A buck-boost inverter with a good performance of \rho_{rect}=0.85;
 +=> \rho_{overall}=0.25*0.75*0.98*0.85=0.16
