Optimal performance of airborne wind energy systems subject to realistic wind profiles

Optimal performance of airborne wind energy systems subject to realistic wind profiles

The objective of this thesis is to assess the optimal power production and flight trajectories of crosswind, ground-generation or pumping-mode airborne wind energy systems (AWES), subject to realistic onshore and offshore, mesoscale-modeled wind data as well as LiDAR wind resource assessment. The...
