  Flying the Technology-- just like flying a kite
Creativity is never beyond human's imagination. Using the word 'floating' is more precise. This floating power plant made by MAGENN is just like a flying kite. It's a brilliant idea and a beautiful invention.

Return the technology to aesthetics.

The Advantages of MARS over Conventional Wind Turbines are:

  1. low cost electricity - under 15 cents per kWh
  2. bird and bat friendly
  3. lower noise
  4. wide range of wind speeds - 2 to more than 28 meters/second
  5. higher altitudes - from 200 to 1,000 feet above ground level are possible without expensive towers or cranes
  6. fewer limits on placement location - coast line placement is not necessary
  7. ability to install closer to the power grid
  8. mobile
  9. ideal for off grid applications or where power is not reliable.


Initial MARS Target Markets include:

  1. developing and island nations where infrastructure is limited or non existent
  2. rapid deployment (to include airdrop) to disaster areas for power
    to emergency and medical equipment, water pumps, and relief efforts
    (ex. Katrina, Tsunami)
  3. off grid for cottages and remote uses such as cell towers and exploration equipment)
  4. and military applications.
