  1. Rolls Royce Advance on Hybrid-Electric Turbogenerator Technology
    EVTOL has come a long way from simply concepts to actual working prototypes with some of the more advanced ones edging closer and closer towards certification. Hybrid-Electric flight too has come a long way and as in cars we will see more of these applications in the future. However, range/endurance has always been at the back of the minds of customers when they conjure up the idea of flying taxis for the urban air mobility sector.
  2. Rolls Royce has been working hard on solutions and the latest news on this is that RR has a turbogenerator. The system will be an on-board power source with scalable power offerings and will complement the Rolls-Royce Electrical propulsion portfolio, enabling extended range on sustainable aviation fuels and later as it comes available through hydrogen combustion. By creating the turbogenerator technology much longer routes for hybrid-electric vehicles and eVTOLs will be made possible. The turbogenerator will beill be scaled to serve a power range between 500 kW and 1200 kW.
