Hi Chief Planes and MarcoG,
Nov. 7, 2020
Adding
some news and people to the discussion. We are still hoping to bring an
AWE conference to the Pacific NW (AWEC2021SeaTac), just across the
Sound from the T'Sou-ke Nation, which might be KGM's ideal opportunity
to visit and advance shared goals.
The
US Dept of Energy (DOE) is increasing its role in AWE R&D,
especially after the US Election making renewable energy and urgent
priority. I have copied here Brian Smith and
Jochem Weber, of DOE NREL Lab. They are getting to know the North
American AWE Community in order to help coordinate International (IEA)
action. "Distributed Wind" is how they classify
AWE for remote communities, like the Polar First Nations we have been
considering as Early-Adopters. Of course Alaska, which the DOE
represents, and the Canadian North, are one Inuit region, plus
Greenland. So I add Carin Eve Cole of the legendary Inuit Windsled Program here,
which hopes to resume Kite-powered Polar Science Expeditions with a new
Greenland Expedition next year, based from Inuit Community. So in
effect we are spanning the entire Inuit World with potential AWE
R&D introduction. Everyone remembers Joe Faust, the "Grandfather of Modern AWE",
also included here. We depend on the Northern First Nations to make
vital contributions to AWE technology, to make it ready for the World,
and liberate them from Diesel Dependence.
While
the Covid Pandemic has slowed physical travel, and will continue to be
a planning factor, 2021 will be very busy for AWE R&D, whether
online, at our home bases, or in remote places. We all have a lot of
work to do! Its will be great when we finally can get together in one
place, which might be AWEC2021SeaTac, or some Polar AWE Beta-Community.
Best to All,
Santos

have formalize the agreement with the Italian company Kitenergy -
already engaged from many years on AWE research - for the construction
of a first component (the KSU **) of the KGM1 linear generator,
commissioned by a third party outside the EU: It
is an important step that follows the technical due diligence process
on our initiative, which marks a growing confidence in the project. As,
to date still only part-time engaged in the initiative and without a
own budget, we are still looking for other partners to join forces and
finance the entire project. Ciao da Torino!
