Kitekraft builds flying wind turbines, also known as airborne wind energy systems. Our technology's main component is a tethered electric aircraft, a.k.a. a kite. The kite has 8 onboard (flying) wind turbines. It autonomously flies in figure eights and generates electrical energy from the wind. Our systems need 10x less construction materials compared to a conventional wind turbine and our systems cost half as much.
Here on RUclips we post videos about recent developments, flight test, and so forth.

Uncut Flight of Kitekraft Demonstrator
Kite size: 2.4m wingspan (1:4 scale).
Location: Oberbiberg near Munich, Germany
Date & time: 24 July 2024, around 4 pm.
Wind speed: 1…4m/s from west. (This is below the cut-in wind speed and thus too little for net-positive power generation. A product-version kite would remain on ground and wait for stronger wind.)
Name of kite: SN9 "Eser"

Flying Wind Turbine - First Grid-Connected Flight

On 25.10.2023 Kitekraft successfully conducted its first grid-connected flight. Even though it was not the priority of this test and low wind conditions prevailed, small amounts of energy were generated and fed into the German power grid.

Amazing skills on display team KiteKraft
Super cool!
Awesome! Would love to hear a bit more about the timeline? When do you guys start working on the first scaled up prototypes?
Was wondering why it was Hazy in the surround foreground. Angle straight up caught a very nice chem trail plane👌
Darf man fragen, ob auch ins Netz eingespeist wurde? Im Video sieht es so aus, als würde an einem komplett windstillen Tag geflogen und die Propeller durch das Stromnetz versorgt statt in selbiges einspeisend. Durchhängendes Kabel sieht nach Windstille aus. Wie gut funktioniert die Landung bei Wind?
It would be interesting, if you could insert a power meter in a corner of the video in order to see in which flight phases power is generated or consumed. Why do you cruise in this laying 8 shape? Isn't it enough to bring the kite in down wind position just changing the hight and position relatively to the container to optimize the energy harvesting?
Wo steht dieses wunderbare Beispiel innovativer Technik ?🧐❓
Could one use a cody war kite system to lift a turbine up to stable wind currents?
warum tut man keinen Luftdruck nutzen.
Dudes! The horrible intrusive music make you appear to be juveniles and don't think you want to use this format ! Best of luck!
What about some better Cable manangment,... ?
Impressive!
Wonderful system demonstration! Congrats!
Geil. Was für ne Entwicklung. 😍 Auch das Ende hat mich nochmal ganz anders nach oben gebeamt.
Do you guys need a machine learning engineer for e.g. dodging birds, react to wind cut offs or to control them as a densely packed array?
Fly high Like a Kite!
Looks like an aviation hazard to me.
Hey. I am a wind turbine loads engineer. It is good to see an update from this project. How do you think to fullfill IEC requirements for certification? Specifically, implementation of Design Load Cases in IEC standart would be challenging.
For now we will go with IEC 61400-1 for the wind load cases. But really it's something to be yet defined properly for Airborne Wind Energy Systems.
Can it take me to work?!!
:D No, this is no air-taxi. But it could charge your Tesla. It's a system used to generate clean and affordable wind power! Find out more here: www.kitekraft.de
Schade! Anscheinend interessante Aufnahmen. Für jemand der das System kaum kennt keine interssante Sache. Mind. Untertitel dazu.
Noted! Werden mal ein Erklärvideo erstellen. In der Zwischenzeit kann man auf unserer Website Informationen finden. Hier: www.kitekraft.de/airborne-wind-energy Und hier: www.kitekraft.de/technology
Finde ich toll. Endlich mal den Wind nutzen, der uns hoffentlich immer um die Nase und Eure Erfindungen weht.
Hypnotizing
Looks very controlled and cautious!👍 Are you already generating power during the figure-of-eight phase of the flight?
So far we've generated energy for small amounts of time (due to low wind conditions, the system shown in the video is capable of generating energy), this will increase this year for which we aim at long duration flights!
Mind blowing KITE//KRAFT team You are amazing So much control
Wind energy storage?
Generation! Find out more here: www.kitekraft.de/
Wundervoll! Deutsche ingeniuersarbeit mit YC Investment!
You guys totally rock 110%
Wird daran weiter geforscht?
Parece conveniente, pero, voy a llevar mi criadero de palomas a otro lugar. . .🤔🤔🤔
Very interesting...
¿Cuánta energía produce? ¿Velocidad mínima del viento para mantenerse en vuelo sin consumo? ¿Que pasa si cesa el viento? Saludos
Bien, estoy trabajando con el traductor de Google aquí, así que tengan paciencia conmigo. El sistema que ve en el video es nuestro demostrador que puede producir hasta 15kW. Nuestro primer producto tendrá una potencia nominal de 100kW con solo 4 veces la envergadura. Pero no se detiene ahí: en los próximos años queremos escalar hasta el rango de megavatios. Velocidad mínima del viento para permanecer en el aire: 0 metros por segundo. Porque podemos volar con la ayuda de nuestras máquinas de a bordo. Sin embargo, eso consume energía y solo se haría por períodos cortos de tiempo. Si el viento baja por más tiempo, aterrizaríamos y luego volveríamos a volar una vez que las condiciones sean adecuadas. La producción de energía comienza alrededor de 4-5 metros por segundo. ¡Atentamente!
Nice
Nice, please make it happen🙏
Was ist bei Windstille, Böhen, Stürmen usw.? Wie wird gestartet und gelandet? Alles automatisch? Auf jeden Fall interessant, dachte aber auch .. ziemlich laut > wie Ayhan ..
viel zu laut
Fliegt höher als ein normales Windrad hoch ist, unten hörst du nicht viel..
Schaut cool aus, kann man auch mal Vorort zuschauen? Ich denke mal, die Kameraperspektive wäre besser direkt vom Truck aus und nicht gegen die Sonne 🍻💚🚀
Nice Video. Do you have description of flying controller and it's software? The touchdown and launch should be theoretically possible at any azimuth direction to the wind - is it possible already? When will you try at stronger winds?
Sehr cool!
nice flight!
Herzlichen Glückwunsch euch. Jetzt zahlen sich die ganzen Bemühungen endlich aus👍
Why not just use a balloon to keep altitude?
By flying in figure eights (one could also do circles, but this has a few other advantages) the apparent wind speed at the kite is increased wich is benficial if you want to increase the power output. This has to do with how electrical machines produce power. The output scales with toque times rpm. But because torque scales with weight, and you really wnat to be lightweight, you do not go with high torques, but with high rpm. Makes sense?
Nicht so tief Rüdiger!
was ist wenn da vögel mit kollidieren? so einen BLÖDSINN hab ich schon lange nicht mehr gesehen!
Very inspiring and interesting to see you guys are developing into a similar field as Minesto with their underwater kite for tidal energy harvesting. It hopefully works in large scale one day! ruclips.net/video/MbHDrgK7Wus/видео.html
Maravilha show de bola 👍✌🏽
Maravilha 😊
How this can generate a net electricity gain considering the thrust required to maintain itself in the air?
The wings generate the forward thrust, just like the blade tips of a conventional wind turbine generate forward thrust to rotated the rotor. More information on how it works is here www.kitekraft.de/airborne-wind-energy and here www.kitekraft.de/technology. Very in-depth information on the physics can be found here mediatum.ub.tum.de/?id=1484087
I have no idea what I just looked at. I'm going to assume that the same propellers that took it up in the air become generators once you reach elevation?
Exactly. More information on how it works is here www.kitekraft.de/airborne-wind-energy and here www.kitekraft.de/technology
Why did Makani fail and how will Kitekraft overcome that?
