    Maybe the project needs to be changed to a petrol powered battery charger?
    My 2 cents worth is that there will always be some residual magnetism in the rotor for self excitation, you could add a couple of little button magnets to the rotor, would affect your regulation a bit. Still need a battery to smooth things out.
