Airborne Wind Energy: How China's S4000 Is Taking Wind Power to New Heights (intelligentliving.co) 2 points by joak 2mo ago ↗ HN
[–] joak 2mo ago ↗ This would up the game for wind energy. Less land footprint per KW, better capacity factor.Would airborne wind be cheaper than photovoltaics?It probably depends on geography (latitude and weather patterns) [–] scblock 2mo ago ↗ This idea has been tried for decades with little to no success. I'd be shocked if this turned out differently.
