- Airbornewindenergy research recognised at the Eni Award 2026! 👏 Filippo Trevisi (Ventoplani) has received the prestigious Eni Award 2026 – Young Researcher of the Year for his PhD thesis, Conceptual Design of Windplanes, developed at Politecnico di Milano. 🤝 The award was presented on 29 October at the Quirinale Palace in Rome, in the presence of the President of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella. 🪁 Trevisi's research focuses on windplanes, tethered, fixed-wing aircraft designed to harvest wind energy at higher
- Regulatory stability to accelerate renewable energy deployment! 🤝 Airborne Wind Europe joins 36 other organisations in calling on EU decision-makers to establish a binding renewable energy target and preserve the existing Renewable Energy Directive (RED) framework. The priority now must be implementation, not another round of legislative revisions. A stable and predictable regulatory environment is essential to unlock investment, accelerate innovation, and support the deployment of innovative renewable technologies such as
- A coalition of 37 industry federations, energy companies, and civil society organisations (including EKOenergy), asks European decision-makers to set a binding EU renewables target and refrain from reopening the discussion of the legislative framework (the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) in Particular). Let's focus on implementation this time, instead of turning another round of consultations, discussions, and declarations. Reopening the Renewable Energy Directive now risks delay, not delivery. "The Renewable Energy
- A strong electrification strategy needs a strong renewable energy foundation! 🤝 Airborne Wind Europe is one of the 17 signatories supporting this joint call for ambitious renewable energy and energy efficiency targets in Europe’s post-2030 framework. We support a framework that provides long-term certainty for renewable energy deployment and creates the right conditions for European clean energy technologies to scale. 💡 #Airbornewindenergy has a role to play in this transition, complementing established renewables,
- Today 17 organisations from the EU Innovation Hub are calling for ambitious renewable & energy efficiency targets to be at the heart of Europe’s electrification drive. Replacing imported oil & gas with European renewable fossil-free electricity is a 𝐰𝐢𝐧-𝐰𝐢𝐧-𝐰𝐢𝐧. It boosts competitiveness with more affordable energy, protects us from price spikes and geopolitical manoeuvring, and helps provide the long-term security of a stable climate. The Commission’s 2040 plan to double electrification to 46% of final energy is very
- AWE × COMBINE × AWETRAINNew connections. Shared ambition! Our Organization Manager, Stefanie Thoms, recently attended the COMBINE project kick-off meeting at the Technische Universität Dresden, bringing #airbornewindenergy into a lively exchange on research, technology and collaboration. 🤝 Her presentation of #AWE and its technology sparked strong interest among participants, opening conversations about potential collaborations and connections between COMBINE’s 17 motivated doctoral candidates and AWETRAIN.
