A concept of a "Kite-type Wind-Power Generator" system is studied for evaluating the potential of an innovative high altitude wind power technology which utilizes a tethered buoyant WPG to extract energy from wind at higher altitude. The demonstration model consists of a straight blade windmill, a specially designed kite to elevate to high altitude, and a generator on ground, where the windmill and the generator are connected each other with a loop tether and wind energy is transferred from the windmill to the generator. A small demonstration model is studied experimentally by wind tunnel tests. Result of the present analysis and experimental study show an expecting facility to provide natural and eternal energy for the habitants in the city area.
