Hamptons Observatory and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County will present a free, virtual lecture by Marco Ghivarello, MEng.     

Led by GHIVA Progettazione, the KGM1 Research Project is a developer of Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) technology. KGM1’s technology utilizes kite-like wings to capture high-altitude winds, thus generating electricity without the environmental footprint of traditional energy sources. By mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, this technology may play a crucial role in safeguarding our environment for future generations.

One advantage of KGM1 is its ability to provide sustainable energy solutions to remote communities and areas affected by natural disasters. In these contexts, where conventional power grids may be undependable or non-existent, KGM1 offers a source of electricity that can be deployed to support essential services and aid in recovery efforts.
