Shelter around 200 KW ODP Induction Generator

Shelter around 200 KW ODP Induction Generator

(OP)
We're looking at an outdoor generator application with a hydraulic turbine-driven induction generator (200 KW) that is ODP.  We'll be putting a shelter around it consisting of cyclone fencing covered with a screening material such as found at tennis courts (Mastershade Windscreens) and a metal roof over the top.  This should allow for adequate ventilation and protection from rain incursion -- especially within the critical 15-degree window allowed for ODP enclosures.

Any others with similar installations that can comment on the acceptability and/or the counter-indications?

Thanks
