Envision Energy has confirmed that its latest two-blade onshore turbine prototype has completed over 500 days of stable operation, achieving an availability rate of 99.3%, a mean time between failures of 2,444 hours, and the equivalent of 3,048 full-load hours per year. Field data indicates that its performance is comparable to three-blade turbines operating at the same location.

The DEM-AWE project has demonstrated the potential of airborne wind energy combined with storage through the Kite-Battery Energy Storage System (K-BESS), developed by Dutch company Kitepower. Field trials were carried out over 18 months, starting at RWE’s airborne wind test site in Bangor Erris, Ireland, where the system’s reliability and control systems were tested in challenging conditions. The integrated battery unit, developed with Greener Power Solutions, was validated during these trials.
