ENERGY KITE3INTRODUCTION Developed inItalythat takes power from high altitude winds.

This was originally conceived by Italian researcher Massimo Ippolitoe

Kite-Gen organisation was developed in Italy for adopting green energy concept.

The simple idea of kite waving in the air lead to this technology

Kite Gen initiated its first project called LADDER MILL that could generate 50Kw of power.

The first design of KITEGEN is a small scale prototype.

The electric actuators which hold the kite lines are fixed with respect to the ground

ENERGY KITE10WORKING The KSU is the unit that allows to automatically piloting a power kite.

The kite steering unit, which includes the electric drives, the drums, and all of the hardware needed to control a single kite

The KiteGen project has designed and simulated a small-scale prototype ,The two kite lines are rolled around two drums and linked to two electric drives, which are fixed to the ground.

Energy is collected when the wind force on the kite unrolls the lines, and the electric drives act as generators due to the rotation of the drums.

ENERGY KITE17CONCLUSION Wind Power from Kites is a potential renewable energy technology

Highaltitude wind power using tethered wind turbine devices has the potential to open up a new wind resource in areas that are not served by conventional turbines.
