Ampyx Power was a Dutch company based in The Hague whose aim was to develop utility-scale airborne wind energy systems.

Originally, the company was a team that former astronaut Wubbo Ockels formed at Delft University of Technology to investigate how heat, wind, and friction energy could be converted into electricity.

The company's original prototypes were tethered flexible membrane kites but then began to work on fixed wing aircraft.

[4] On April 17, 2017, Ampyx Power signed a cooperation agreement with German energy company EON.

[5] The consortium researched the offshore application of floating AWES and the possibilities and limitations of an entire airborne wind park with multiple systems, far-offshore and in deep waters.

Ampyx Power designed the conceptual aircraft and the entire offshore wind farm, studied the certification framework, and managed the project.

The collapse of Ampyx Power in 2022 put over ten years of research in airborne wind energy at risk, including the chance of their aircraft taking flight.
