~global service~
~member of GWEC~ and partner organization in support of GVEP
 

AWEIA is a listed supporting organization of GVEP

~~~ forwarding
the interests of the airborne wind energy industry
in collaboration with the hard-towered wind-power industry~~~

Questions?      coordinator@aweia.org             
AWEIA National Progress

Is your enterprise advancing the use of airborne wind energy conversion systems (AWECS)?
Is you enterprise serving hard-towered wind power conversion systems (HTWECS) and also open to AWECS?

  1. AWEIA is the most powerful network of airborne wind industry professionals on earth.  We focus on leadership in technical merit.

  2. AWEIA foster advances in airborne wind energy technology by educational programs.

  3. AWEIA connects key AWE industry players.

  4. AWEIA gathers AWE decision makers.

  5. AWEIA builds bridges with national wind associations.

  6. AWEIA's dedicated team of highly-skilled professionals work on a portfolio of key issues to accelerate the development of airborne wind energy.

  7. AWEIA always has our members’ best interests in mind.

  8. AWEIA points to independent testing agents.

  9. AWEIA relentlessly builds an AWECS centered knowledge base.

  10. With a robust focus on service, our aim is to provide regular, relevant, and up-to-date industry information and

  11. political intelligence.

  12. AWEIA is an inclusive organization for all parties interested in promoting the quality and development AWECS.

  13. AWEIA is global.

  14. AWEIA is an independent, impartial and non-profit-making organization.

  15. AWEIA aims to bring together all interested parties including: providers of AWECS packages, parts, and services (including training, supervision, installation, repair, maintenance, testing, buyers, research centers, teachers, students, engineers, designers, siting estimators, kite makers, kytoon manufacturers, generator suppliers, AWECS programmers, AWECS dealers, smallAWECS installers, largeAWECS installers, potential dealers, potential installers, potential suppliers,  industry leaders, new entrants, project developers, economic development groups, )

  16. AWEIA promotes the adoption of quality standards for AWECS.

  17. AWEIA is forming national reporting representatives for each nation. AWEIA National Progress

  18. AWEIA committees and working groups share a professional interest in a specific airborne wind energy conversion topic. Safety, operations, maintenance, installation, inspection, siting, education, human resources, and more. Members aim to network effectively with peers in their AWE niche. Committees on microAWE, miniatureAWE, toyAWE, sportAWE, nomadicAWE, residentialAWE, commercialAWE, utilityAWE, agriculturalAWE, seaAWE, and more report to the good effects for all scales of AWECS.

  19. AWEIA is extending the reach for wind power to higher winds aloft by means of kites and other unmanned aerial vehicles.

While maintaining our independent platform, AWEIA is aiming to become a member or collaborating associate of

and others as opportunity evolves.
 

China, Japan, India, Korea, and Russia may blossom with airborne wind energy innovation and installation.   Access to the intellectual property evolution is challenging for those not having mastery over the these languages.       Help is invited for AWEIA awareness for this sector of energy kite systems.
