Power generation systems for aircraft are described. The power generation systems include at least one aircraft component and a ram air turbine assembly (200) configured to provide power to the at least one aircraft component. The ram air turbine assembly includes a turbine (204), a power generator (212) operably connected to the turbine, and a continuously variable transmission (300) arranged between the turbine and the power generator, the continuously variable transmission configured to receive an input rotational speed from the turbine and output a constant output rotation speed to enable power generation at the power generator.
