Systems Aspects of Electric Commercial Aircraft – Researching the Challenges to Introduction

There is a strong drive to find more environmentally friendly solutions in the transport industry at the moment. Electric systems have a great environmental potential in terms of reducing emissions. Only a few years ago the idea of carrying commercial passengers on working routes such as London to Paris on an all-electrically powered aircraft would have been considered an impossibility: Yet we can now see the rapid progress of electric aircraft propulsion systems that is starting to make this a reality.

Professor Andreas Schafer from UCL is a key player in the EPSRC-funded work that has been underway in UK research institutions in recent years. A great opportunity to find out more about the evolution of enabling technologies and the potential paths forward. Join this free lecture to find out more about how electric systems can affect the future of commercial air transport.

This lecture is free to attend, we look forward welcoming you to our London HQ.
