Altaeros is making remote wind energy possible by developing a patent-pending airborne wind turbine based on proven aerospace and wind technology. Using a helium-filed shroud adapted from the aerospace sector, the Altaeros turbine safely harnesses the immense, untapped potential of high-altitude winds. A stronger wind resource and lower installation costs will allow Altaeros to lower the cost of energy by up to 65% compared to existing diesel generators or other renewable technologies.
