Electric Airplane

SAN DIEGO, March 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has granted San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) a Section 333 approval for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), allowing the utility to conduct aerial inspections of its electric The FINANCIAL -- Siemens researchers have developed a new type of electric motor that, with a weight of just 50 kilograms, delivers a continuous output of about 260 kilowatts – five times more than comparable drive systems. The motor has been specially Aside from the wind roar audible in the video, the E-Fan seems near-silent--certainly not the case with even the smallest of fossil-fuel powered light aircraft. On either side of the fuselage, mounted towards the rear, sits a 30 kW electric motor and its BERLIN—When a Panavia Tornado blasted into the clouds above the Berlin Air Show before swooping back down toward the Earth, the grounds below shook from the roar of the fighter bomber's twin engines. When the next aircraft took to the sky, the air show An aircraft with a parallel hybrid engine – the first ever to be able to recharge its batteries in flight – has been successfully tested in the UK, an important early step towards cleaner, low-carbon air travel. The demonstrator is based on a LE BOURGET, France -- Maybe we should call them e-craft. At the Paris Air Show here, a handful of companies tried out their own version of a change sweeping the automotive industry: electric power. There are abundant challenges to the approach, but some .

Aviation is a slow-moving industry, but the daring designers of electric aircraft have made a lot of progress recently. During the past two years, as a number of key technologies—batteries, controllers, motors, and materials—have neared maturity and It might look like some kind of crazy machination that adorned the cover of Popular Aviation back in the ’60s, but the flying machine pictured above is the real deal. Developed by NASA, the GL-10 Greased Lightning is an unmanned hybrid-electric Reportedly the first hybrid airplane that can recharge its batteries took off this week. It is the product of airplane giant Boeing and Cambridge University researchers. The result is an airplane that 30% less fuel than a comparable 100% petrol plane. Airbus just showed its battery-powered E-Fan 2.0 electric airplane to the public for the first time, at England's Farnborough International Airshow. Standing still, it looks like a normal if slightly odd-shaped tiny plane. In the air, though, it seems .
