Where is the alternator located on a 2005 ford escape hybrid with 2.3L motor?

On a 2005 Ford Escape Hybrid with the 2.3L engine, the alternator isn't located in the traditional place like on a gasoline-only vehicle. Because it's a hybrid, the primary charging function is handled by the Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) which is located on the front of the engine, typically near the crankshaft pulley. There might be a smaller, supplemental alternator for specific functions, but it's not the main charging component. The exact location of any supplemental alternator would require a detailed workshop manual or a visual inspection of the engine bay.
