Day 1, Session 3: Electric Propulsion: Delivering Power & Efficiency for Fuel Cell-Powered Flight
Speakers:
Moderator - Imogen Bhogal, Presenter, Fully Charged
Dr Youcef Abdelli, CTO Propulsion, ZeroAvia
Michael Cervenka, Chief Technology Officer, Vertical Aerospace
Russ Dunn, CTO & Head of Strategy, GKN Aerospace
Prof. Sastry Pamidi, Associate Director of Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS), Professor and Chair, FAMU-FSU College of Engineering.
Peter De Bock, Program Director, ARPA-E
Within battery, hybrid and fuel cell-focused aviation innovation, rapidly advancing electric propulsion technologies are of common importance across a range of applications and methodologies seeking to deliver compelling emissions reduction or a revolution in air mobility.
Multi-MW fuel cell systems for aviation are coming, and weight-optimized, hyper-efficient, aerospace-ready electric propulsion systems are advancing in support. The impact on air mobility and other transport sectors can be immense. What are the limitations on electric propulsion systems? Where are the big engineering challenges that might put the brakes on motor and power electronics? How can development be accelerated with the use of digital twin and AI technologies?

Live from Paris Airshow, hear from ZeroAvias VP Sales and Business Development Oli Henstridge, on the opportunity for sub-regional zero-emission flight using hydrogen-electric.
Hydrogen-electric powertrains offer both lower operating and maintenance costs and have a range of applications across the sub-regional sector. Lower costs and environmental impact means enhanced connectivity, increasing economic and productivity growth across industries through social exchange.
