  • Publication number: 20150233254
    Abstract: An electrical energy generation system includes an electricity generator assembly from which a tensile line extends. The electricity generator assembly is configured to retract the tensile line and generate electricity upon extension of the tensile line. A vented airfoil assembly is attached to the tensile line. The vented airfoil assembly includes an airfoil through which at least one or more vent holes are defined. Each vent hole is entirely surrounded in surface perspective by the airfoil. A vent assembly is positioned in each vent hole. Each vent assembly has an open configuration in which the vent assembly permits airflow through the airfoil and a closed configuration in which the vent assembly restricts airflow through the airfoil. Each vent assembly is controllable such that the vented airfoil assembly constitutes a maneuverable kite.
