Funding will support research, design, and a pilot-scale project involving the operability of a prototype Airborne Wind Turbine (AWT), an airborne system intended to generate utility-scale electricity by using tethered, high-performance wings outfitted with turbines. Proposed work consists entirely of research, development, and demonstration work to be completed in manufacturing and outdoor testing facilities located in Alameda, California (CA); Davenport, CA; and Sherman Island, CA. The work performed will be limited to on-site research, design, fabrication, and pilot-scale testing.
