Abstract

The present invention provides a power generation device that can not only reduce the generation of vibration but also increase thermal efficiency. A power generation device (10A) includes: an engine (1) in which a right crankshaft (31) and a left crankshaft (32) rotate in opposite directions to each other; a right flywheel (41) and left flywheel (42) as a primary inertia body; and a power generation motor (2) as a secondary inertia body, a total inertia moment in a first rotation direction and a total inertia moment in a second rotation direction being balanced with each other by not less than 50%.
