As electric aviation races ahead, the challenge of selecting the right energy storage solution becomes more critical than ever.

VoltAero, the French aerospace innovator developing hybrid-electric aircraft, is preparing to begin production within two years, according to CEO and CTO Jean Botti.

When Bassem Farag, co-founder and CTO of Energy Node, takes the stage at the Aerospace Test & Development Show, he’ll be tackling a challenge many in the industry are grappling with – how to design batteries for electric aviation that are safe, high-performing, cost-effective, and lightweight, all at once.

Ignacio Echavarria is a man with many hats. As chief technology officer, head of engineering, and chief engineer at Dovetail Electric Aviation, he’s not only setting the strategic direction for the company but also leading the hands-on development of its flagship aircraft: the E-Caravan, a fully electric retrofit of the iconic Cessna Caravan.
