Minesto Tidal Kites

Everyone remembers how it feels to be flying a kite across the sky. You feel the strong pull from the kite strings. As the kite moves sideways, you notice that it flies faster – way faster than the wind itself is blowing.

Flying a kite across the air flow is the same principle behind Minesto’s patented and award-winning ocean technology. Except, instead of flying in your backyard, they fly in the ocean. Water is nearly a thousand times denser than air so the energy is much more concentrated.
