That's way too fast, you need a speed of 3600 RPM to generate at 60Hz (3000 RPM for 50Hz).

Woah we went some torque too, ≈15k happens to be a nice multiple of 3 so just gear reduce it down to 3k.

Siphon off the excess into a flywheel and then use that to drive the turbine.

Well depending on the torque we could use some transmission or produce at a bit above 400Hz and use large frequency changers.
