China has successfully flown the world’s largest and most powerful airborne wind turbine, a milestone that could bring cheaper, more reliable green energy and strengthen the country’s leading role in the global clean energy transition.
Between September 19 and 21, the airship-like S1500 – about the size of a basketball court and as tall as a 13-storey building – became the first turbine of its kind to generate one megawatt of power during a test flight at a desert site in China’s western Xinjiang region

World’s most powerful flying wind turbine launched in western China
Gigantic gliding ‘power bank’ could help communities cut off from the grid during blackouts and cement China’s leading role in green energy
