Aviation is working towards net-zero carbon by 2050. Gerry Hoadley, our GSE business leader, discusses why transitioning ground fleets to electric vehicles is a good place to start in Airport Business Aviation Pros. 50% of airport ground fleets today are made up of gas-powered vans, trucks, sedans and golf carts. Transitioning these full-size ICE vehicles to right-sized EVs can help airports achieve this ambitious goal. Not to mention the added benefits of enhanced safety, cost savings, reduced maintenance, size, flexible charging and improved operational productivity.

The Ampaire Eco Caravan made its first flight using its hybrid-electric propulsion system ✈️ Ampaire's Eco Caravan successfully completed its first flight utilizing its hybrid-electric propulsion system, departing from Camarillo and flying for 33 minutes. The company anticipates that its Grand Caravan will become the first electrified regional aircraft to enter commercial service, paving the way for a series of hybrid aircraft designed to drive the transition to sustainable aviation. Ampaire CEO Kevin Noertker spoke about the technological hurdles that the decarbonization of the industry faces . "Aviation is the most difficult industry to decarbonize," the executive noted. «The weight and energy density of current generation batteries limits all-electric aircraft. Hybrid aircraft can retain the range of current aircraft, so they are a way for the airline industry to start reducing emissions. In turn, looking to make the business more attractive, it will benefit operators with lower operating costs," said Noertker. You can read more about this achievement here: https://lnkd.in/ef9GU4A8

Advancements in Electric and Hybrid Aircraft for Private Aviation The aviation industry is undergoing a transformative shift toward sustainability, and private aviation is no exception. Electric and hybrid aircraft are emerging as game-changers, offering reduced emissions, lower operating costs, and cutting-edge technology. With private jets often criticized for their environmental impact, these advancements bring a new narrative—one of innovation and responsibility. Electric propulsion systems, hybrid engines, and even vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft are paving the way for a cleaner, quieter future. For private aviation, where many trips are short-haul, these technologies are particularly well-suited. Operators can not only reduce their carbon footprint but also attract eco-conscious clients seeking greener travel options. As the global market for electric and hybrid aircraft is projected to reach $27 billion by 2030, now is the time for industry leaders to adapt. Dive into our latest blog to explore the technologies shaping the future of private aviation. https://zurl.co/8sZc5 #Sustainability #AviationInnovation #hybridaircraft #electricaircraft #global #market
