About the Initiators

Zürich

Wir sind acht Bachelorstudenten und werden innerhalb eines Jahres ein Airborne Wind Energy System entwickeln – von der Idee bis zu einem optimierten Prototypen.
Mit unserem Projekt zeigen wir eine Möglichkeiten auf, erneuerbare Energien innovativ zu nutzen.
Bei der Umsetzung werden wir die Erkenntnisse technologischer Entwicklungen an der ETH Zürich anwenden und erweitern.
