Wasn't there an article on this a little while ago on FR? I recall, as the thing that stood out to me was that they had to develop a generator the size of a beer keg that had a FIVE MEGAWATT OUTPUT. (Or something akin to that...)
By no means am I an electrical engineer, but that, to me, sounds like a HUGE amount of power in a small package...
