Storage of kite energy

All are invited to advance this just-started folder of files.  Notes@EnergyKiteSystems.net

Energy from kite systems will be stored or used immediately or a mix of both.
 What are ways to store energy from kite systems?

Water head, electrochemical batteries, ultracapacitors, flywheels, lifted mass, electrolysis of water for hydrogen storage, springs, heat, compressed air,  etc.

  Chemistry Change in Batteries Could Make for Safer Electric Cars
• Raise soil to store residential energy. Lower the soil to run generator.
• Electrical energy storage (apart from pumped storage hydropower) is still a peripheral part of the power generation infrastructure. However, the advancing use of renewable energy, particularly wind power, will change the perception of storage and lead to significant increase of its use. At the same time, developments over the last ten to twenty years have brought a range of new storage technologies to the brink of commercialization. However, commercial project are in short supply.""   ~Business Insights
