A turbine engine for aircraft includes a gas generator as well as to a receiver driven by a power turbine, and to an electric power generator, the rotor of which centered on a rotor axis distinct from the longitudinal axis, is driven into rotation by the power turbine, via a mechanical gear transmission, including a toothed drive wheel centered on the axis. Further the receiver includes a first propeller driven by a free power turbine and the toothed drive wheel is attached on an outer case of this power turbine.
