So it's just a really big battery.
The kite thing is just a novelty/marketing move. There have been containerized commercial battery systems available for at least a decade. The barrier to adoption is, as always, price, not "kite delivery".
Is this for really remote places, like Greenland/Alaska? Because otherwise you can just use a truck/tractor.

- brazzy 3y agoYou completely misunderstood. The kite is not for "delivery", it actually generates the power.
- antisthenes 3y agoYes, you're right. I'll have to re-read the article to see how much this kite can actually generate.
