Details
Summary: This project addresses Airborne Wind Energy Systems (AWES), in particular Kyte Generator Systems (KGS), which can exploit high altitude winds to generate electrical power. Each KGS comprises a controlled kite connected to a ground generator by a single tether. We propose to study KGS, to investigate them in a multi-system
configuration, and to develop and construct 3 prototypes.

KGS occupy a considerable land area. An efficient use of land is obtained when multiple kite systems are used sharing a given space. Here, we propose to use multiple KGS. This brings about two main challenges: (i) the robustness of the overall system to guarantee that collisions are
avoided; (ii) the choice of the best layout for a set of KGS in a given land area. These are open research questions, involving challenging optimization and control issues. This project aims to contribute to answer these questions. These are the main scientific innovations foreseen.
