The Current State of Electric Aircraft Technology, a research backed investigation. https://brilliant.org/ElectricFuture First 200 people get 20% off annual premium subscription. It’s no surprise NASA is developing an electric aircraft. Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is absolutely convinced we’ll be flying in long distance electric passenger planes in the future. Companies like Rolls-Royce, Boeing, and Airbus are all exploring aircraft electrification. So what does the future hold? We collaborated with aerospace engineers, NASA scientists, and veteran pilots to sort through the current electric aircraft research and evaluate the most promising new technologies based on performance, practicality, and economics. We’ll provide a comprehensive overview of electric airplane technology, discuss the benefits and challenges, and then rank the most revolutionary electric planes. We discuss battery electric aircraft, hybrid aircraft, hydrogen aircraft and everything in between. This piece primarily focuses on the state of the art in fixed wing electric aircraft for long distance passenger travel. EVTOL’s will be covered separately, as part of our ongoing series exploring the future of electric aviation. •✓ Gentle Kisses on Both Cheeks European Style: LEMMiNO - Infinity https://soundcloud.com/lemmino/lemmino-infinityaloft Brad Clarkson https://behance.net/BradClarkson Pslavi https://youtube.com/user/pslavi René Rosentraeger https://youtube.com/channel/UCj6O_mJ5G0JiGLTJUemIO_A Rodrigo Magro Mañas https://instagram.com/rmagro/ Organizations: NASA Armstrong http://nasa.gov Tecnam https://tecnam.com Airbus https//airbus.com EPSII https://epsii.com Faradair https://faradair.com Joby Aviation https://jobyaviation.com Tesla https://tesla.com/ SpaceX https://spacex.com/ Boeing https://www.boeing.com/ Wright Electric https://weflywright.com/ Zero Avia https://www.zeroavia.com/ Universal Hydrogen https://www.hydrogen.aero/ De Havilland https://dehavilland.com/ Harbour Air https://www.harbourair.com/ magniX http://magnix.aero Pipistrel http://pipistrel.com Emrax http://emrax.com Rolls-Royce http://rollsroyce.com Eviation https://eviation.co Solar Impulse Foundation https://solarimpulse.com Air Race E: http://airracee.com/ Article Format: https://www.electricfuture.com/electric-planes-the-current-state-of-electric-aircraft/
