The Topic

Evolution to Electric & Hybrid Aircraft

The electric and hybrid aircraft are becoming a reality at a very fast pace. At the same time, there are many problems that need to be resolved to progress successfully and affordably. Various elements of the existing and future architectures will be reviewed. Systems and components like electric drives, power sources, distribution busses, environmental and thermal control, electric rotating machines, power electronics will be reviewed and needs for improvements targeted. Examples will be revealed.
 
Various subjects will be discussed, including:

•        Why Electric and Hybrid Aircraft?
•        Typical Attributes of E&H Aircraft
•        Challenges Resulting from E&H Aircraft Implementation
