Kitepower has reached an exciting new milestone in the development of its airborne wind energy system. At our test site in Ireland, we successfully completed 3,400 flight cycles in just 79 days, with a record-breaking 800 cycles achieved in a single period. This means Kitepower has been in operation for 30% of all working days. A strong testament to the reliability and growing commercial viability of our technology.

Advancing airborne wind energy, one cycle at a time

Every flight cycle brings us closer to realizing the full potential of airborne wind energy. Operating 30% of all working days proves that our system is capable of consistent, real-world performance. With each launch and landing, we gather critical data to refine our technology, increase efficiency, and enhance reliability.

By continuously testing and optimizing our system, we are paving the way for a future where Kitepower can deliver renewable energy to remote areas, off-grid communities, and industries looking for a sustainable power solution.

What’s next?

Reaching this flight record is an important step, but we’re not stopping here. Our team is focused on further improving uptime and operational capacity to maximize energy output. With every cycle, we are getting closer to making airborne wind energy a scalable, accessible alternative to conventional wind power.
