Abstract

This project focused on the modeling, device design, control system design, and progressive experimental validation of an energy-harvesting underwater kite harvesting energy through cyclic spooling motion. This adds to the portfolio of the DoE Water Power Technologies Office has resulted in several key outcomes that will further the development of energy-harvesting kites, as detailed in the report.
