Collaborations & Research

Partnering with visionary organizations to pioneer clean, reliable, and accessible energy solutions for communities around the world.

Iniskim Consulting

Iniskim partners with Indigenous and remote communities to develop and deploy sustainable clean-energy solutions. Their work includes technical assistance, microgrid scoping, funding strategy, application support, and technical training for workforce development.

Their approach is deeply community-centered—supporting local capacity, strengthening energy resilience, and ensuring that projects move from concept to implementation with clear accountability.

Lead Contact

Stephanie (Akai'tsii aan iyii aakii) Bostwick — Blackfeet Nation

Aerospace engineer and educator with extensive experience supporting Tribal energy initiatives at the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Indian Energy, Northwest Indian College, and NREL.

KGM1

KGM1 develops next-generation Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) systems designed for remote and off-grid communities—many of whom rely heavily on diesel generators and face extreme energy insecurity.

Their compact kite-driven wind system (10–20 kW rated) offers up to 50% cost savings and a 90% weight reduction compared to conventional wind turbines, making it easy to transport, install, and maintain even in harsh terrains.

Think of it like a kitesurfer—but instead of riding waves, the system converts the kite’s motion into continuous electrical power.

Managed by GHIVA Prog. CAD, the project is built for modularity and future scale, with seamless integration into microgrids, solar + battery systems, and hybrid energy networks.
