Free Online Event | 16-17 June 2020
Boost knowledge, overcome engineering challenges, and make connections with fellow professionals developing the next generation of electric aircraft technology
More Electric Aircraft (MEA) applications demand high reliability, high availability, and high power density while aiming to reduce weight, complexity, fuel consumption, operational costs, and environmental impact. New electric driven systems can meet these requirements and also provide significant technical and economic improvements over conventional mechanical, hydraulic, or pneumatic systems.
This online event will bring together stakeholders along the whole supply chain to discuss the fast paced developments for electric and hybrid aircraft architectures, systems and components, related technological challenges and opportunities up to commercial viability with the overall goal to support the industry on next generation aircraft design to improve fuel efficiency and reduce the environmental impact significantly.
