Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018158789A1] The present invention is lays in the sector of renewable energies, specifically the High Altitude Wind Energy sector, the so-called Airborne Wind Energy (A.W.E.). It consists of a system of conversion of wind energy into electrical energy that exploits the alternate motion, along a given path, of a unit placed on the ground and driven by a power wing profile, proposing to optimize the energy conversion method wind power in electricity - based on the flight of wings or kites bound with cables to the ground, for high altitude wind generators, by solving or significantly mitigating the problems of current generators, where at each "active" phase of energy production follows a "passive" phase which brings the energy production to "0" for several minutes, stopping or reversing the movement of the moto-generators - which move away considerably from the maximum yield curves.
