Charging is not enough – the importance of energy transition

The aviation sector is undergoing a tremendous change, driven by the need for decarbonized air mobility. Electric propulsion changes the paradigm not only in the air but on the ground. While traditional OEMs were making planes, counting on the availability of fuel, today's need for charging an aircraft brings a serious topic to the table, and the electrification of airports and vertiports means a total shift in energy transition, from the source of energy all the way to its management and final delivery.
