The overarching objective of AWETRAIN is training the next generation of researchers to further advance the integration of airborne wind energy into the industrial energy system. The aim is to maximize the impact of airborne wind energy technology by focusing on the engineering and socio-political transformations that are needed in the difficult transition from prototype to commercialization.

Device reliability

The first set of research objectives is focused on improving the reliability of the device itself.

AWE-based plants and scaling

The second set of objectives is focused on AWE-based plants and scaling.

Socio-economic transformations

The third set of objectives is focused on transformations in society and businesses.
