Yes, you should use transformers. But there will be a variation in the Voltage and current applied

If you're talking about AC power and you want the 150 kw on a single circuit, you will have to synchronize the rotations of the smaller generators as well as matching voltages. This could get pretty complicated. Ref.1 has some tips about synchronizing 2 generators, but 20 sounds like trying to herd cats. Some will do most of the work, some others will draw power from the line, and net efficiency will suffer. There are single 150-kw generators available; see for instance some second-hand motor-generator sets in ref. 2. You may be able to find a cheaper source.

You can lock two generators operating frequency together simply by connecting the output wires in parallel. (Low output impedance windings will cause tremendous current to flow if they try to unlock, and as such will remain in perfect sync.) Trying to do this with 20 generators is silly. Purchase a single large unit rather than multiple small ones.

If the load cannot be split up, it is better to get a single large power plant than to try to synchronize a lot of smaller ones. Trying to balance the load among a number of small plants, and keep them all in phase, is a nuisance.

The generator score would be all suitable.you will although. choose a time postpone timer for about 5 minutes on your compressor motor to re-start up in case of potential failure. this manner, compressor rigidity would drop down.
