About

KGM1 is a electric generator using the Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) technology for solve the energy needs of Off Grid and disastered lands, that often have crippling logistical problems for most of the renewable energies and overpricing problems for traditional fuels. We are targetting the higher level of performance with a patented set of innovations. Now we have built and tested in flight a prototype, other than having a industrial plan. The founder, Marco, has three and half decades background experiences in product design, other than paragliders and gliders, has supported by a team of researcher and the team is looking for expand. We are looking for those people that could help build a kW version, modular sizes from 10 to 20 kW, having a automatically control of flight, so that we can start refine the product and sell. This initiative is a first piece of a bigger program finalized to go on-grid, by entering in the AWE sector with a easier client, like off-grid populations.

Perito Costruttore Aeronautico

at GHIVA Progettazione CAD

Published 3 months ago Turin, Deadline February 28, 2025

At the moment my only focus is on being able to bring the "KGM1" initiative (https://solarimpulse.com/solutions-explorer/kgm1) into TRL 7, creating and testing prototype n° 3, in order to understand the real potential of this new linear generation AWE technology. The conditions exist to create the most disruptive AWE generation technology, bringing the initiative to at least 10% of the value assigned to the Airborne Wind Energy business, i.e. 10 million euros, within two years of launch, but I can't anymore - alone - to take the project to a higher level. Therefore, I am willing to cede commercial control and manage only the technical part, under conditions to be defined and maintaining a minority shareholding percentage. A parallel objective will be to create the conditions to reward those who have contributed to the growth of the initiative with their "sweat for equity".
