New High-Altitude Wind Power Energy Technologies Show
Great Promise
These new wind power generator technologies can generate
power cheaper and far, far cleaner than coal, oil, or nuclear
power plants. The technology exists, we simply need to deploy
it.
- Kitegen
- An entirely new concept of power plant, suitable to
almost any territory, for the production from renewable
source of electrical energy cheaper than from fossil fuels
(petroleum, coal, gas). The energy source, currently untapped
and available anywhere, is the powerful altitude wind
of the troposphere, channelled through arrays of large
tethered power kites.

Power - Makani Power is seeking to harness
high-altitude wind energy to produce energy at an unsubsidized
real cost significantly below that of the least expensive
coal-fired power plants, the current benchmark of the
lowest cost source of power.
