Electricity Generating Kite - Kite Wind Power

Another great feature by http://MyWindPowerSystem.com
Want to generate your own electricity? http://cli.gs/6sH5rE A work group of the university of Delft is creating electricity with a kite. They were testing on the Dutch island Texel. You see several launches of the kite, one from the ground and two with the help of a blimp. The tests are part of the 'Laddermill' project by Wubbo Ockels, which aims to create energy from wind more efficiently than windmills. The Dutch scientists have successfully demonstrated a plan which could harness renewable energy, by flying a 10 metre kite.

@LerningEveryDay Jess! This doesn't sound like you. Well hun I am not just agreeing with you for nothing. you know in my advanced knowledge of physics and engineering that I could make this call. I am going to have to say that it couldn't work "well". There is no way that one could achieve such energy from just the movement of the kite going "up and down".

Umm... "Bro" I'm a girl. Still, I dont believe it. I agree to disagree.

Sorry bro but it does work, its not something for nothing the something is coming from the wind!

You're wrong it actually works. The Kite Generator converts more Energy while the kite rises then when it consumes while it falls, because it glides down controlled by control cables.

It reallly a stunning, low price concept. It makes use of fast computers with intelligent programmed algorithms. This is the future im shure!

Unfortunately it can't work. As the generator produces more power and resists the wind, the kite will lower itself to an area of lower wind speed and the power output of the generator will decrease accordingly until a new equilibrium height is reached. As wind speed increases, the lower the kite will be lower and so on. You can't get something for nothing which is why windmills need to be anchored firmly to the ground. Ignitionman

That's not real outside, I can see the damn skybox..
