Design of a Power Plant based on the X-Wind Technology
Clemens Töpfer NTS
In Friedland in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the suitability of the X-wind technology to generate electrical energy has been demonstrated in numerous tests.
Based on the measurement results, the basic parameters of a large plant are object to be determined.
Dimensioning is given for the main components of distance,
generator and kite control to fit a power plant in multi- megawatt range.
The dependencies of wind conditions, altitude and operat-ing mode are presented.
Potentials to improve the overall performance are derived and discussed.
