LEN SHEPARD

We are indebted to Cykic Software for assistance with this website, and to many friends all over the world who have learned of this enterprise and given encouragement... Starting in 1980, convinced that the world needed a new energy source, and that high altitude wind energy had the potential of being that source, Mr. Shepard began researching potential methods of capturing this energy as well as conducting wind tunnel and open air tests on various approaches, including a test of a rising and descending kite in a Nevada desert location. In the end he considered Professor Roberts' approach to have the best potential of meeting the world's most important energy and global warming problems.
