Sensitivity analysis on route economics of electric flights

Per airport, the potential of e-flight could be investigated based on the current and future demand and route network. Furthermore, the additional charging and electrical infrastructure could also be quantified based on earlier research. This case study based on a Latin-American market combines these two initial steps and continues with an analysis of the route economics. With this third step, new insights have been gained, into which factors have a significant influence on the economic viability of e-flight. Consequently, it shows the influence on the year in which e-flight would show lower operating costs than conventional flights.
