SUMMARY
As the aviation industry enters the early stages of the energy transition, researchers are constantly developing renewable technologies to power travel in our skies. With alternative technologies such as battery energy storage, hydrogen, and synthetic aviation fuels all under development, the electric aircraft market is predicted to grow significantly over the next decade. But how? And how will these technologies change the way we travel in the air?

In the latest event in partnership with the Faraday Institution, we take a deep dive into the research, systems engineering, challenges, and potential solutions of deploying batteries in the skies. Join a panel of experts to learn how batteries fit into the technology mix for decarbonising aviation.

The livestream will go live at 6.55pm, and the introduction will begin at 7.00pm. If you register but miss the livestream, the video will be available to you via the same link for two weeks after the event date.
