Control design and energy optimisation of a buoyant airborne wind turbine
Airborne Wind Energy Systems (AWES) aim to capture the wind energy potential at high altitudes by using a combination of tethers and bespoke aerofoils. In contrast to conventional horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT), the tower is replaced with lightweight tethers resulting in a reduction in both th...
