There's been a recent video by the German "Sendung mit der Maus" (basically how does stuff work for little children) about these kind of generators. I did not double check if the company in the video is the German one mentioned in the article, but chances are high. Video and subs are in German only, but it's less than 10 minutes and one can see a little how it works.

Very cool. I noticed that the radio-controlled unit that steers the kite has its own little wind turbine for power.

Why are these people wearing safety helmets? Does this imply that everyone living under the kites will have to wear one too?

They're under a crane lifting stuff up overhead on a work site, that's probably why.

I doubt people will be living under the kites. I doubt there can be anything in the vicinity of the kite flying range for that matter, so no windmills or high tension lines or buildings or anything, which limits this thing's options especially in higher density countries like NL.

no, it's because the are directly at the site where the kite is launched (and on national tv)
