While the West debates climate policy, China is literally testing megawatt-class power stations floating 6,500 feet in the sky. The S2000 Stratosphere Airborne Wind Energy System just successfully generated electricity and fed it directly into the grid—marking a world first for high-altitude wind power.

But here’s what’s wild: Taco claims China doesn’t have any windfarms. Meanwhile, China controls 72% of the global wind turbine market, is responsible for 74% of all current wind projects, and just surpassed coal for the first time in history. This isn’t about renewable energy anymore—it’s about geopolitical power and energy independence.
