With a focus on strengthening our software, flight test, and operations teams, these talented professionals join us during an exciting phase in Kitepower’s journey towards sustainable energy solutions.
Expanding Our Horizons: Kitepower’s Second Location in County Mayo, Ireland
At the forefront of our expansion is the establishment of a brand-new team for our second Kitepower location in County Mayo, Ireland. We extend a warm welcome to Mark Devas and Padraic Doherty, who will be instrumental in driving our test campaigns from this joint test location, in collaboration with our partner RWE. This strategic move aligns with the finalisation of the development of our groundbreaking Kite Battery Energy Storage System, the Kitepower Hawk.

Our software development capabilities receive a significant boost with the addition of three talented professionals. Antonio Velasco joins us as a Simulation and Flight Dynamics Engineer, contributing his expertise to propel our simulations to new heights. Alexandre Guerra strengthens our embedded software team, bringing innovation and efficiency to our software development processes. Additionally, we are thrilled to welcome back Kitepower alumni Bert Buchholz, who returns as the Head of Software, adding his wealth of experience to lead our software team towards new milestones.
