Airborne Wind Energy System Modelling, Control and Optimisation (AWESCO)
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,
The height of conventional wind turbines is limited by the enormous stresses on the structure. The idea of the Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) is to replace the most efficient part of a conventional wind turbine, the tip of the turbine blade, with a fast flying high efficiency kite, and to replace the rest of the structure by a tether which anchors the kite to the ground. Power is generated either by p ...

EK200 - Airborne Wind Energy and Storage system, catering to Off-grid andMobile End-uses (AWESOME) (EK200-AWESOME)
Start date: Aug 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
The aim of the EK200-AWESOME project is to bring the EK200 to market - an integrated 100 kW container based airborne wind energy (AWE) converter and storage solution catering to off-grid applications and mobile end-uses. The EK200 can be deployed stand-alone or in arrays. The EK200 could also shape the future for AWE and provide basis and principles for up-scaled MW units.MotivationThe EK200 will ...
