Airborne Wind Europe (AWEurope), the association of the European airborne wind energy industry, has appointed a new board of directors, expanding its team with important profiles coming from the most active AWE developers on the continent. We are very proud to announce that the role of Vice Chairman of the association is now covered by Kitepower’s Founder CEO Johannes Peschel.

I am honoured to represent the Vice Chairman of AWEurope and in that way contribute to the important work that AWEurope is doing. The recent crisis shows that we need to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels and even quicker transition to a net-zero CO2 emission future. AWE can play a significant role but to do so we need political, financial and public support. Kitepower is happy to be a member of AWEurope which helps the industry to grow in these domains.
