German kite ship saves fuel
Feb 6 - The MS Beluga SkySail - driven in part by kite-power - successfully crosses the Atlantic and proves that the system does cut down on carbon emissions.
The world's first commerical ship part-powered by a giant kite, Beluga SkySails made energy savings of between 15 and 20 percent during the 14-day voyage from Germany to Venezuela, which according to Beluga is the normal duration of the journey.
