Electric aviation refers to the use of electric propulsion systems in aircraft. It encompasses a range of technologies that utilize electric motors, powered by batteries or other energy storage systems, to achieve flight. Electric aviation aims to reduce the environmental impact of air travel by decreasing greenhouse gas emissions and noise pollution associated with traditional jet propulsion. This sector includes various applications, from small drones and urban air mobility vehicles to potential future developments in commercial airliners. Advances in battery technology, electric motors, and aerodynamics are key drivers behind the growth of electric aviation, with the goal of creating more sustainable and efficient aircraft.
