At high altitudes, the main facts:
- winds are stronger and more consistent than ground level
- a double wind speed produces 8 times wind power !
- winds are available almost everywhere for a high capacity plant
- wind rotor operates without neither noise nor flickering
- no bird crash since rotor hovers in the sky by a buoyant aerostat wards off birds.
