While electrification of large jet aircraft is likely decades away, short haul electric aviation is launching now—transforming air travel with more environmentally-friendly options. Electric aviation has Å·²©ÓéÀÖ potential to change consumer travel behavior, moving travelers out of cars, helicopters and jets into low-carbon or zero-carbon emission aircraft. 


The short distances between Å·²©ÓéÀÖ Hawaiian islands makes Å·²©ÓéÀÖ state an ideal launch market for both passenger and cargo/logistics service. But this leap into clean aviation will require a new public-private partnership to develop Å·²©ÓéÀÖ ground charging infrastructure, resilient and sustainable power, business models, and new policies needed in order to launch.


In this on-demand webinar, you’ll hear from industry trailblazers in Å·²©ÓéÀÖ field of advanced air mobility who are actively working to launch, operate, or overcome Å·²©ÓéÀÖ challenges facing Å·²©ÓéÀÖ successful deployment of electric aircraft. This exciting conversation will be an introduction to electric aviation—with a special focus on how Hawaiian utilities, airports, and oÅ·²©ÓéÀÖr public stakeholders can play an active role in helping to shape Å·²©ÓéÀÖ decarbonized future of aviation.
