On climb out at approximately FL230 we got a loud vibration/ noise. I checked the electrical synoptic page; shortly after the right generator went yellow then shut down. We ran the appropriate checklists starting with the GEN 2 OFF BUS which led to inflight shutdown and a single engine approach and landing.A combination of self awareness and systems info available in the cockpit allowed us to isolate the problem.We suspect the cause to be a failed generator.Our reaction was in line with the SOPs for single engine operations.Single engine operations in a mountainous environment can be especially challenging and should be taken into account in training.
Captain reported electrical failure during climb out and the flight crew diagnosed it as a #2 generator failure. The Captain reported compliance with the QRH and continued the flight.
