Airborne Wind Energy (AWE)

Airborne wind energy is a promising approach to

decentral wind energy harvesting
offshore wind energy harvesting, in particular for floating offshore systems
clean ship propulsion

Goals of the OpenSourceAWE organization:

to support the cooperation between startups and academia
to develop a complete stack of simulation, estimation, optimization and control software for all major AWE concepts
by doing so, reduce the costs and effort for developing the initial software stack for startups and researchers
furthermore, to provide reference models for the International Energy Agency (IEA) such that major stakeholders can inform themselves about AWE concepts and performance characteristics

So far, our members come from The Netherlands, France, Spain, Norway, Switzerland and Scotland.
