  • 3G ( duh! )
  • Avaliable in Dark Grey, Red
  • Thinner ( 20% ) - MacBook Air like bezeling
  • Stereo Speaker in the back

Kitegen - Wind Generator of the future ?

Friday, June 6th, 2008 | Tech News | No Comments

Based on Kitegen’s current evaluations, their wind generators would have a much lower electric energy production cost than any of the current wind farms and would be able to generate up to 250 MW/km2, (vs. the current 3 MW/km2).

Its amazing to think that kiteboarding kites could revolution the windpower future - but actually just a few years back when I was just learning how to kite, ant the kite went into the death spin - it was pretty clear to me how much power this kite technology is capable of. View the prototype test video.
