The first model of the “Power Wing”, a wing specially designed for the production of energy, has been finally released by the KiteGen laboratories. We show you a preview. The availability of a “Power Wing” is the main enabler for the mass production of low-cost energy from tropospheric wind. The kite sports are made of [...]
