System for Generating Electric Energy by Exploiting Wind at Height

Apparatus for generating energy by exploiting wind at a height from a ground surface, comprising:

• an ultralight kite component comprising:
• a central housing;
• wing profiles each having a working surface, the wing profiles configured to extend away from the central housing and retract toward the central housing and configured to rotate the kite component and to raise the kite component when there is sufficient wind, either strong or weak;
• means within the central housing for controlling the working surfaces of the wing profiles such that—
• when there is weak wind the wing profiles fully extend, placing the kite component in a working cycle,
• when there is strong wind the wing profiles partially extend, placing the kite component in a working cycle, and
• when there is insufficient wind, the wing profiles close, such that the kite drops until either there is moderate wind or a high amount of wind again, or the kite component reaches the ground surface;
• and
• means for transferring energy from spinning of the kite component to the ground.
