For energy production, the kite is operated in consecutive "pumping cycles" with alternating reel-out and reel-in phases: [11] [15] during reel-out the kite is flown in crosswind maneuvers (transverse to the incoming wind). This creates a large pulling force which unwinds the tether from a ground-based drum connected to a generator.

Automatic power kites are at our vision''s core. They . can harness the wind''s untapped supplies at alti- tudes of up to 400 meters, and we were the first company in the world to develop an industrial application. Now, our solution is ready for scale-up. SkySails
Kite Energy Technologies is a company that supplies lithium-ion battery technology. It provides mobile power solutions to aerospace, automotive, specialty industry, powersports, marine, and energy storage systems.
The two companies plan to fly a 120m² kite to a height of approximately 400m above ground to generate electricity. The kite pulls rope from the winch during its ascent in a controlled trajectory. Electricity will be
Underwater kite systems offer the promise of energy capture from tidal power with minimal structural costs. Current approaches are not scaled for small communities, however. SRI International will team with the University of California at Berkeley, which has facilities for hydrodynamic testing and experience with environmental issues and community engagement,
Kite-based electricity generation is an innovative technology gaining global traction as a potential renewable energy source. In Sri Lanka, where wind energy is already harnessed in regions like Mannar and Puttalam,
We develop innovative energy technologies, harnessing altitude winds driven by Italian ingenuity, creativity and passion. The key idea of Kitenergy is to harvest high-altitude wind energy with minimal effort in terms of generator structure,
The two kites - with a five-metre (16ft) wingspan - move underwater in a figure-of-eight pattern, absorbing energy from the running tide. They are tethered to the fjord seabed by 40-metre metal
Kitepower represents an innovative and cost-effective alternative to existing wind turbines. Kitepower systems start producing energy with lower wind speeds than the ones required by conventional wind turbines, moreover, Kitepower is
Since 2010, Kitenergy has been innovating in the wind energy field with the introduction of a new way of exploiting wind energy. We use ultralight kites tethered to a ground-based generator at which are transferred the kite aerodynamic forces.
The Ocean Kite System uses regenerative braking technology, converting tension in the lines into energy, which helps recharge the system during operation—something traditional systems can''t do. The OKE Kite Engine uses regenerative technology to capture energy when lines are let out under load, allowing it to recharge itself and your
An old idea, that due to the development of better materials and new technology now "has the wind in its sails," to coin a corny phrase.This is the kite from the Delft start-up Kitepower that can be used to generate sustainable energy. For the moment, it is primarily suited to remote, off-grid locations.However, some concerns have arisen about the disruption to the
In this origin story, we dive into the creative and technical journey that led to the development of the Ocean Kite Engine (OKE) ''s more than just a breakthrough in marine technology; it represents a commitment to innovation rooted in over 15 years of research and development.At its core, the OKE was designed to tackle long-standing challenges in kite management for
The Dragon 12 tidal energy kite. Source: Minesto. The Dragon 12 tidal energy generator is a 12 m wide and 28 ton subsea kite, anchored with a tether to the seabed. The power plant consists of a wing, which carries a turbine directly coupled to a generator in a nacelle.
Imagine that you are standing on a beach, flying a kite across the wind. You feel the strong force from the kite strings. As you fly the kite sideways, you notice that it flies faster – way faster than the wind itself is blowing. Flying a kite across the flow is the same principle behind Minesto''s patented and award-winning ocean technology.
Kite-based electricity generation is an innovative technology gaining global traction as a potential renewable energy source. In Sri Lanka, where wind energy is already harnessed in regions like Mannar and Puttalam, this technology could present a new avenue for diversifying the country''s energy mix.
A key part of the technology''s appeal is that kites can harvest wind energy that conventional turbines cannot. A typical 1.5 MW turbine stands 100 m tall, and its net capacity factor – the actual energy produced, divided by the maximum possible – is usually less than 50% due to the intermittent nature of wind. An energy kite is a
The Ocean Kite Engine (OKE) is a next-generation kite control system engineered for optimal performance and energy efficiency on sailboats. It features automatic reeling and anti-twist technology, ensuring seamless kite deployment and retrieval even in challenging conditions.The system''s precision winch allows for fine-tuned kite management, maximizing the harnessing of
Kitepower represents an innovative and cost-effective alternative to existing wind turbines. Kitepower systems start producing energy with lower wind speeds than the ones required by conventional wind turbines, moreover, Kitepower is capable to harness stronger and more persistent winds at higher altitudes.
Netherlands-based startup Kitepower''s Falcon airborne wind energy (AWE) system deploys a fiberglass-intensive kite to generate wind energy with a low ground footprint. Over the years, dielectric analysis (DEA) has evolved from a lab measurement technique to a technology that improves efficiency and quality in composites production on the
