On invitation of the German Airborne Wind Energy Association (BHWE Bundesverband Höhenwindenergie e.V.) the 5. International Airborne Wind Energy Conference took place in September 2013 at the Beuth University for Applied Sciences Berlin.
Over 200 participants from 21 countries discussed in 48 talks and 21 poster presentations the current development status and the next steps for serial production. Companies, universities, colleges and research institutes presented the results and findings of their studies as well as first demonstrators of the different AWE-technologies.
The team of TwingTec contributed to the conference with two presentations and one poster. Two of them were also published by Springer in the “Airborne Wind Energy” book edited by Uwe Ahrens (NTS GmbH), Moritz Diehl (KU Leuven) and Roland Schmehl (TU Delft).
