Basics
- A Category of Wind Turbine that has its components either not connected to the ground, or only tethered
- Thus it is lower cost due to no need for a large Mast , and can reach (much) higher altitudes and thus stronger more stable wind
- Also they can be "pulled down" via the tether and thus are highly mobile and can be made very safe in storms
