Abstract: A method of operating an electrolyser comprising providing a reactant flow stream to the electrolyser and using the electrolyser to split the reactant into a product flow stream. The magnitude of the power supply to the electrolyser is determined and, if the magnitude of the power supply is less than or equal to a predetermined value, a dilutant gas flow stream is introduced into the reactant flow stream before the electrolyser. The dilutant gas is an inert gas. Also, a system for producing ammonia where the feed stock to the system is provided by the electrolyser.

Abstract: An airborne wind energy system (100) and a method for controlling such an airborne wind energy system (100), which comprises a kite (102) connected by a number of steering lines (301) to a control box (300) and coupled via a cable (105) to a winch system on a ground station (104). The control method comprises detecting an error signal from a component of the airborne wind energy system (100), wherein the error signal is set by a detection of a breaking of the cable (105) and/or a fault on the winch system controlling the extraction and retraction of the cable (105). The control method further comprises controlling the movement of the control box (300) according to a landing mode, and activating a safety device connected to the control box (300).

Abstract: A wind turbine comprising at least two separate units assembled to form a nacelle connected to a wind turbine tower. A first of said two units houses a rotor-supporting assembly and a generator. To enable a large degree of flexibility and the ability to reconfigure, a second of said two units houses an electrolysis cell stack powered by the generator.

Abstract: A payload coupler with a position control device for controlling a position of the payload coupler when suspended from a lower end of a line for attachment at an upper end thereof to a lifting device. The payload coupler includes a payload attachment means and at least two propulsors. The payload attachment means couples to and/or decouples from a payload and is arranged to directly couple the payload coupler to a payload. The propulsors are configured to generate resultant propulsion forces which are non-parallel and having at least a component perpendicular to the axis of the line when the line is hanging taut under gravity.
