&gt; And with the spacing being what it is this probably won&#x27;t work out favorably for Makani. Still, it&#x27;s a super interesting project.<p>I think I understand why you&#x27;d say that, namely there isn&#x27;t an infinite amount of land that can play host to wind generating equipment.  But I think traditional turbine farms already have a large spacing; 6-10x rotor diameter.  If you&#x27;ve got a 50-100m turbine then a spacing of 300m-1km isn&#x27;t unreasonable.  The Makani equipment might need 50% more space, but probably not 500% or 5000% more which would really make it unattractive.  <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wind_turbine#Wind_turbine_spacing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Wind_turbine#Wind_turbine_spac...</a><p>If Makani a 50% lower capital cost then you&#x27;ll probably see regular turbines continue to be sited where their higher capital cost is effective and Makani equipment deployed where the traditional turbines are uneconomic.
