VoltAero’s new partnership with Kawaski could provide hydrogen-electric boost

French aircraft developer VoltAero outlined plans at Farnborough air show for a series of hybrid-electric – and eventually hyrdogen-electric – regional aircraft. 

VoltAero has strengthened its partnership with Kawasaki Motors and secured a new deal with Sigma Air Mobility to boost development of its advanced propulsion systems and expand its market potential, respecitvely. 

Chief executive Jean Botti says Kawasaki Motors previously invested an undisclosed amount into VoltAero – describing the Japanese manufacturer as a “stakeholder and partner” – as Kawasaki revealed plans to break into the aerospace engine market. 

Deploying operations requires in-depth expertise and presence or partnership at every step. As a result, project management and overall economics are derived from operator deployment.
