Makani Power

 
We are happy to announce that Makani Power has been acquired by Google.

This formalizes a long and productive relationship between our two companies,
and will provide Makani with the resources to accelerate our work
to make wind energy cost competitive with fossil fuels.
The timing couldn’t be better, as we completed the first ever
autonomous all-modes flight with our Wing 7 prototype last week.

Makani could not have reached this point without the support
of the US Department of Energy’s ARPA-E program
and the hard work of our talented team, past and present.
We look forward to working with our new colleagues at Google[x]
to make airborne wind a cost-effective reality.
