10 Think:Act Aircraft Electrical Propulsion The current electrically-propelled aircraft landscape. In the following section, we lay out the current land- scape of development activities in electrically-pro- pelled aircraft. Many – if not most – of the concepts discussed below require significant technological steps to become viable. And, just as with any venture, many – if not most – of these initiatives will probably not bear fruit. However, it is clear that investors and engineers are aligned in the potential of Electrical Propulsion and teams around the world are already making strides towards further electrification. Roland Berger has created a database of electrical- ly-propelled aircraft programmes in order to identify technological, market and competitive trends. In total, approximately 70 programmes have been launched by companies ranging from incumbent aerospace players to new start-ups – to say the least, the industry is bus- tling with activity. New programmes launched can be categorised into four types – General Aviation (GA)/Rec- reational Aircraft, Urban Air Taxis, Regional/Business Aircraft and Large Commercial Aircraft. E Our database indicates that around half of all new programmes have been launched by start-ups/ independents, and 5% are backed by major non- aerospace companies. Only c. 20% are being launched by major airframe OEMs such as Boeing, Cessna and Agusta Westland – but most of the devel- opments in this category are being conducted by Air- bus. The geographical distribution of new ventures is split roughly equally between North America and Europe, reflecting the location of current production of most of the world's aircraft. Almost half are only single fan designs, with a third aiming to capture the propulsive efficiency benefits of Electrical Propul- sion through distributed fans. The current status of development for each category of aircraft is described below. GA/RECREATIONAL AIRCRAFT The segment of General Aviation/Recreational Aircraft has been a hotbed of development activity. The up take in this segment has been enabled by existing aircraft ar- chitectures already using propellers for propulsion, either allowing a simple substitution of the powerplant or allowing designers of new platforms to draw on a wealth of relevant past experience. GA incumbents have released retrofitted versions of existing aircraft, such as the electric Cessna 172 and Pi- pistrel's Taurus Electro or WATTsUP electric trainer. Small independents and start-ups have also entered the field through this segment, such as DigiSky with the SkySpark demonstrator. This class of aircraft has also proven to be an effec- tive segment as a "test bed" for further development. Siemens' first solo foray into electric aircraft was in this segment with the all-electric demonstrator Extra 330LE which had its first flight in 2016. Airbus' E-Fan program also began with its Cri Cri and E-Fan 1.0-1.2 contingents in this segment. F URBAN AIR TAXIS There has been clear acceleration in the launch of devel- opment projects for 1-4 passenger Urban Air Taxis. Typ- ical developments in this area are currently targeting a limited range of up to 50 km, with vertical take-off andPDF Image | Aircraft Electrical Propulsion The Next Chapter of Aviation 2017
