KES - Kite Energy Scheme

风筝动力解决方案有限公司（KPS）是英国唯一一家利用风筝发电的技术开发商。KPS成立于2011年，旨在开发这种创新的颠覆性风能技术。KPS预测，到2025年，一个3MW的浮动海上系统将进入市场，其电力成本是传统风力涡轮机的50%，低于电力批发价格，无需补贴。该项目使KPS能够与英国领先的企业进一步扩展现有的演示技术。这些合作伙伴是BVG Associates，支持电力转换系统的优化；青蒿智能动力为传动系统开发提供支持；帝国理工学院支持机翼的空气动力学发展；国家复合材料中心优化风筝材料和制造工艺；Keynvor Morlift Ltd进行系泊和安装评估；银行帆作为KPS的风筝制造合作伙伴。该项目还将涉及与更广泛的公众和环境利益相关者的接触，以评估KPS风筝能源技术推出的影响。

Kite Power Solutions Ltd (KPS) is the UK's only developer of a technology to generate electricity from the windusing kites. KPS was formed in 2011 to develop this innovative disruptive wind energy technology. KPS predictsa market entry in 2025 for a 3MW floating offshore system which has a cost of electricty 50% of conventionalwind turbines, lower than the wholesale price of electricity removing the requirement for subsidies.This project enables KPS to further scale the existing demonstrated technology with leading UK businesses.These collaborators are BVG Associates supporting the optimisation of the power conversion system; ArtemisIntelligent Power providing support in the drive train development; Imperial College supporting aerodynamicdevelopment of the wings; The National Composites Centre optimising kite material and manufacturingprocesses; Keynvor Morlift Ltd to conduct mooring and installation assessments; Banks Sails as KPS kitemanufacturing partner. The project will also involve engagement with the wider public and the environmentalstakeholders to assess the impacts of the rollout of KPS kite energy technology.
