What were you planning on using for phase correction and speed control?
One reason none of the currently built large turbines, or small ones that I know of, use solid rotors with the stator connected directly to the line is that once the generator exceeds synchronus speed, 1800RPM in your case, the power factor gets further from unity the faster it turns.
Same is true of a motor running slower then synchronus speed, that's why larger motors have run capacitors to correct the power factor on the line. Some older turbines like the Vestas V-15 used banks of switched capacitors to correct phase and power factor of the output.
You might want to check into what your local utility requires for power factor control on grid tied equipment. I know that here, MN/US, the power factor has to be within 0.25% of unity on grid tied equipment. Poor power factor control creates a lot of headaches for utilities both on the generation and consumption sides of the grid and they're getting pickier about it all the time.
If you Google "Power Factor" you'll find a lot more info
