Windlift Information

We are a wind energy engineering and computer software company developing Airborne Power Generators (APGs). The Windlift APG is an Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) system that uses a tethered wing with onboard rotors to generate electricity from the wind. Windlift APGs operate by harnessing the same wind power as a traditional turbine, but with only 5% of the materials, potentially making them the highest energy density (wh/kg) for any renewable energy system in windy environments. Windlift’s mission is to produce energy for a sustainable civilization. Climate change is the defining challenge of our time. It is an issue that directly threatens the very fabric of human society and the existence of millions of species. Windlift rises to the challenge of mitigating climate change by developing a renewable energy technology that could become the world’s lowest-cost energy source.
