Energy

• Inescapably a flying simple kite is already a converter of energy, a heat engine, an energy generator, a holder of energy, a channel of energy, a radiator, a machine doing work, a giving system, ...   It is the task of AWES developers to form kite systems that radiate gifts and energy in formats that solve practical tasks.  Though a simple kite is an AWES with humble but noble gifts for humans, advanced AWES have the potential to bless the world in even more ways.   Era K3 is the era of advanced AWES wherein kite-energy serves well.

• Once flying, a kite system will continue to transform and exchange various forms of energy until the very end of the flight session, sometimes with unhappy results.
• kite pilot energy-management skills (autopilot or live human pilot).  It is up to AWES operators to manage the energy flow in a working AWES efficiently and safely.  Mismanagement of kite-energy systems' energy flows may result in loss of health, life, property, service, and funds.
