Apparatus and method for transferring electrical power to a rotating shaft. An apparatus for transferring electrical power to a rotating shaft, the apparatus includes a first winding in a stationary part of the apparatus around the shaft, a second winding on the shaft adjacent to the first winding, a sensing device adapted to sense the rotational frequency of the shaft, and a variable frequency drive. The variable frequency drive is adapted to adjust an input current frequency to the first winding as a function of the rotational frequency of the shaft, whereby a desired output voltage and frequency in the second winding on the shaft is obtained.
