Some collectors are going to a 50KW or occasionaly a 60 KW 540 rpm standby generator for a "load". They take about 75HP and 90HP to drive at full output.
The generator is connected to a couple of old forced air electric furnaces got for free off the scrap pile. No cooling water hose required either and no hydraulics to leak.
The power output is easily caluclated as volts x amps = watts and divide by 746 to get HP.
And the generator comes in handy when ever the utility power goes off.
